That reflected more of a language bias than I should probably have
expressed. I can imagine fine arguments for preferring Java Cocoa to
Objective-C Cocoa. Your priorities might lie with features of Java
like garbage collection, the exception mechanism, protection levels
on methods, and static data members, which are all either absent or
different in Objective-C.
I stand by my bias toward Cocoa (rather than Swing), but withdraw my
bias toward Objective-C (rather than Java).
