6.5. Review

Well, we told you this one would be short. With a handful of minor exceptions, the IBM Java SDK is a complete drop-in replacement for the Sun Java SDK. You could go back to the previous chapter and repeat every example and exercise with the IBM Java SDK, and you would get the same results. There is definitely some comfort in knowing that even though you don't have an Open Source Java VM and SDK, at least you have two vendors the produce functionally identical development environments. You are not trapped into a single vendor's offering.
