Before Java Here's is a picture of Bill Venners, circa 1995, back before he'd ever heard of Java, when he spent most of his time programming C++ and MFC on Windows. Note the pained look on his face as he types into the keyboard. Photo Courtesy Matt Gerrans

After Java By contrast, here's Bill in the spring of 1999, drinking a Guinness in a pub in Dublin, Ireland, where amateur musicians were making beautiful music in the next room. Bill looks so happy because it had been almost four years since he'd written a line of C++, MFC code. He's all Java now. Photo Courtesy SKC
