- coldtea 13y ago>I think there are lot of mono software written in c# that runs on Ubuntu Not as much as you think. Mono is a niche product too. >and Java not used outside of Android? ROFL He said "Java on mobile". Perhaps try to understand what you read before rolling on the floor? Java mobile (or "end user" apps in general) are Android, some crapplets, and that is mainly. If it weren't for development tools for Java devs (Eclipse, NetBeans, etc) and some internal enterprise monstrocities people are forced to use, there wouldn't be any Java desktop adoption either.
