As rzwitserloot commented in Reddit's Java community: Microsoft. This release is supporting a competitor in the OS space, who is shifting away from an ally on chip hardware, who also makes consumer electronics in direct competition with your hardware division, for a programming language which is in direct competition with your preferred language. REDWOOD SHORES and CUPERTINO, California—November 12, 2010—Oracle and Apple® today announced the OpenJDK project for Mac OS® X. Apple will contribute most of the key components, tools and technology required for a Java SE 7 implementation on Mac OS X, including a 32-bit and 64-bit HotSpot-based Java virtual machine, class libraries, a networking stack and the foundation for a new graphical client.
