The mayor language with managed garbage and virtual machine (compile once, run 
everywhere) is Java.  From my C++ coder POV these two languages are so similar 
that I fail to see why it's worth to risk getting into patent issues with MS. 

The only big advantage of C# is that it's part of the CLI family.  This isn't 
of any value for non MS platforms.
