I think they better watch out! The last time someone said this was Sun in regards to Java. Microsoft used every trick in the book to make sure it didn't happen, including marginalizing Java, packaging IE with the OS, hooking in "ActiveX" controls into IE, and other tactics. Note, in general, they lost these battles, but won the war.

What's curious to me is that this comes on the heels of the announcement of B!ng and on reports that it is picking up speed (but that report turned out to be a yawner -- the gains were statistically insignificant and likely related to the buzz).

I use Chrome (browser) on a daily basis, and while I like it, it is susceptible to crashing when there are lots of windows/tabs open. But on the whole, it's fast and clean.

However, the big plus is this: for developers, there will no longer be a distinction between writing software for the web and for the local computer, which is what Java and Microsoft have been trying to do for years, but have ultimately failed. It also means that there will be a greater emphasis on distinguishing between functionality and presentation, which I'm all very much in favor of.

jvisualvm

jvisualvm(1)						      General Commands Manual						      jvisualvm(1)

NAME

       jvisualvm - Java Virtual Machine Monitoring, Troubleshooting, and Profiling Tool

SYNOPSIS

	       jvisualvm [ options ]

PARAMETERS

       Options,  if used, should follow immediately after the command name. Options may be in any order. For a discussion of parameters that apply
       to a specific option, see OPTIONS below.

DESCRIPTION

       Java VisualVM is an intuitive graphical user interface that provides detailed information about Java  technology-based  applications  (Java
       applications)  while  they are running on a given Java Virtual Machine (JVM(*)). The name Java VisualVM comes from the fact that Java Visu-
       alVM provides information about the JVM software visually.

       Java VisualVM combines several monitoring, troubleshooting, and profiling utilities into a single tool. For example, most of the  function-
       ality offered by the standalone tools jmap, jinfo, jstat and jstack have been integrated into Java VisualVM. Other functionalities, such as
       some of those offered by the JConsole tool, can be added as optional plug-ins.

OPTIONS

       The following option is possible when you launch Java VisualVM.

	     -J<jvm_option>
		Pass this <jvm_option> to the JVM software.

USAGE

       Java VisualVM is useful to Java application developers to troubleshoot applications and to monitor and improve  the  applications'  perfor-
       mance.  Java VisualVM can allow developers to generate and analyse heap dumps, track down memory leaks, perform and monitor garbage collec-
       tion, and perform lightweight memory and CPU profiling. Plug-ins also exist that expand the functionality of Java  VisualVM.  For  example,
       most of the functionality of the JConsole tool is available via the MBeans Tab and JConsole Plug-in Wrapper plug-ins. You can choose from a
       catalog of standard Java VisualVM plug-ins by selecting 'Tools' | 'Plugins' in the Java VisualVM menus.

       Start Java VisualVM with the following command:

       %  jvisualvm <options>

SEE ALSO

       (* The terms "Java Virtual Machine" and "JVM" mean a Virtual Machine for the Java platform.)
