   Does Sun "own" TCL now?  Does Ousterhout work for them now or 
something?

   Also, this "better" thing...Better at what?  GUIs?  Network 
programming?  Database programming?

   Yeah but TCL is an interpreted scripting language.  Most companies 
don't like to give out their source code.

   80MB of crud spewed across your spindles?  What Java are YOU running, 
man?
