That's true, but at least Java applets died a natural death instead of being axed.

I checked the history of Silverlight and the first version was released in 2007. jQuery was released in 2006 so Silverlight was a classic case of "too little, too late".

Real Java applications run well nowadays, so much so that you don't notice it's Java (except that you always have to give them more memory...)

And yes, you can still use MFC ;)
