Have you seen .NET running on Linux or Mac? Of course, there is the
Wine and Mono project, but that is officially not supported and to be
honest Microsoft is not very happy seeing these around -- only that
some guys decided to make it work like that.

In opposed to that, Java was designed to be multi platform, officially
supporting all of these. It proven works on many different machines
and operating systems for many years now. Getting back to the original
subject, Microchip would not be able to develop a multi platform MPLAB
in .NET and C#, would they?
