MS VM



The .Net VM looks very similar to Java's.  Miguel said the VM's support for various languages is better than Java.  The truth, it seems, is that it's tied to one language, C#.

.Net's VM lacks:
* multiple inheritance of implementation,
* generics,
* dynamic typing,
* double dispatch, and
* method pointers.

For more information see this recent article posted at Javalobby:
http://www.javalobby.org/clr.html.  It is written with a slight bias, but the factual content seems supported.  It would seem sufficient to dispel any technical advantage the .Net VM has.
