Hi folks,

I am looking to start learning java programming , and have been wondering
about both jbuilder from borlanmd and visialage from ibm. I know that
borland is a "programmers" shop while ibm is more of a corperate shop.

So as a novice leval programmer wnating to jump intpo java and who will be
learing it from the start which is mpore suited to this situation ? I
mainlly what to make a few databse apps and was leaning towards borland
duento there data source type components. Do they both work well with
postgress amnd other open source  simple sql databses ?

Like I said I am somewhere betrwwen newbie and novicee on the experiance
scale and have mostly worked with application generates which I have found
to be lacking when you need to make them do what yoiu want and not what
they do want. I have also dablled with and made a few delphi apps as well.
Delphi I realy like but its not out on Linux yet.

I was aslo looking to Python/gaby but its only text based and there were
not printing tools foe gaby and that rout would seem to meen hand coding
evertthing as opesed to an ide/component level type tool like
jbuilder/visualage that can be dropped and modified to what you want. Feel
free to correct me on the python thing maybe I over looked somthing ?
