Funny, but misleading, just like the Mac/PC ads. Macs are great–when they work. But the reality is that they often crash and/or misbehave (like all software!), and all that pretty abstraction then becomes a nuisance. Strange that I’m saying that, but I’ve come to appreciate the great suite of tools Java offers after working on a large codebase.
Of course it’s all relative. I wouldn’t use a full J2EE stack to build my personal website. RoR/Python frameworks certainly win there.
