Java doesn't make coffee, .NET does
Ah, what a droll thing to come across. A programmable coffee machine from Melitta.
Every tech nerd will tell you that the two monster programming frameworks, Sun's Java and Microsoft's .NET are fierce competitors for the hearts and minds of programmers and developers. Although it is not clear how the the IT version of Java originated, many will point to Java coffee being a source of naming inspiration. Yet, somehow, Melitta decided to use the Microsoft .NET MicroFramework. Presumably using managed code gives you more reliable coffee.
