I must say, after using Java more and more in recent months, it starts 
to show why so many developers call Delphi/Object Pascal out of date. [I 
never thought I would ever say that - I have a real soft spot for Object 
Pascal]

The Java language has some awesome features and much less typing is 
required - yet not as cryptic as C/C++. The Java IDEs (primarily Eclipse 
and IntelliJ IDEA) also blow Lazarus and MSEide out of the water - but 
then they have a ton more resources at their disposal). Either way, 
those IDEs are a real pleasure to work with, and have so many programmer 
friendly features.
