For my job, our director's interviewing some vendor and they offer two platforms....one an EJB platform and one a .NET. The choice is up to me, and since I'll get trained on either, which will be better in the long run. (and personally to know)

Thanks!

EJB? **** Java Beans?

I would go with .NET. There are much better development tools for .NET

Thanks guys for the help. On a side note as well, I'm in the Bay Area (San Francisco). I was looking a UCB Extension and they don't offer much, anyone know where to take classes at night?

EJB has a bigger market right now. Of course, this comes from EJB developer, so I might be biased. One thing I know for sure, a lot of big companies, who are our clients, use EJB over .NET.

I'd personally say .Net

Why? There is much more potential for it, at least for me. On my own I've developed some really sool stuff using VB .Net, ASP .Net and web services. My next business move (in another thread) will be utilizing only .Net. Small groups of people (even a single person) can produce great stuff with .Net fast... I'm not sure if the same can be said about EJB side of things. A friend tells me that his JSP stuff takes a team of engineers forever to produce :p

Sure .Net is vendor lockin blah blah blah but if you figure EJB is Java which is Sun its just the same ;)

EJB is driven by IBM more than SUN.
