Excuse me if I'm missing something, but wouldn't it be necessary to implement parts of the VM or the class library in native code anyway? I'm thinking about code to access e.g. resources like I/O devices, sound etc.? Or is this discussion C vs Java restricted to the bytecode executing part of the VM?
