Pessoal um grande passo foi dado pela IBM. 
Conforme eu vinha prevendo a Big Blue est� lan�ando o Visual Age para
Linux, o que me anima muito mais na jun��o de Java e Linux para o
desenvolvimento de solu��es de alta capacidade (java) a baixo custo de
propriedade (Linux). 

A not�cia est� logo abaixo.

VisualAge for Java technical preview for Linux
 May 1999 

 We would like to thank our extended development community for their
 support of the VisualAge for Java family of application development
 products. 

 In response to your petition, brought forward by Scott Stanchfield,
signed by 937 people, we will offer a
 technical preview of VisualAge for Java, Professional Edition for
Linux. 

 This technical preview, will be shown at the upcoming JavaOne
conference. We are striving to
 overcome tight development schedules in order to make cds, containing
the technical preview,
 available at the show. 

 In addition, the technical preview will be posted to VisualAge
Developer Domain, for download, shortly
 after the JavaOne conference. We will be watching this site carefully
to determine the feasibility of a
 general release of VisualAge for Java, Professional Edition, for Linux
to the market. 

 Below are sample screenshots, taken from an internal driver. 

 See you at JavaOne.
