I'm not so sure about that, since he asks if they
should switch to C# instead...

Anyway, my point was to enforce good program design rather than a specific
language.

Whether they choose Java or C#, the access to low level functions has to be
"wrapped" in some way. JNI if they choose Java, "unmanaged code" if they
choose C#.

In both cases they'll probably wind up coding in C/C++...
