My thoughts on the article can be surmised in this one statement

foo.x += 1 is so much more readable than foo.setX(foo.getX() + 1)

it's honest and true.  so far i've only had to develop a few small
apps in C# (a couple desktop apps and a couple of server side apps),
so I definitely don't have a strong feeling of the language (only one
app was database driven).  C# just feels much more like a modern
programming language compared to java.  the one thing the author
doesn't point out is the ability to declare a class across multiple
files, this is extremely useful when building desktop applications, as
you can create one class w/ both UI interaction and back end
interaction, while keeping the two areas completely separate.

i love java, don't get me wrong. started in highschool about 99 and
have been toying with it since... and as i just typed that i realize
that i've been tinkering with it for far too long, 10 years now.
