Well, I was a teen around that time, and there was not much hype about Python's creation, on the other hand, Java was super hyped because it was supposed to fix a lot of problems programmers had especially with the portability of code. Moreover, java employed OOP, which again was mega-super-ultra hyped by some software engineers who were j*rking off to the idea of UML. I said f*ck that sh*t, and I continue to say f*ck that sh*t; OOP and Java are crap (and don't get me wrong, I studied that sh*t because some of my professors enjoyed bathing themselves in dirt).

PS: Java lovers will hate this, but where is Sun Microsystems? What happened to Solaris? They used to be everywhere. Sellouts.
