Not much. Unless someone rewrites all those systems where there is a JVM available. The world of enterprise systems isn't only Mac, GNU/Linux and Windows. Additionally the pace of .NET doesn't matter, because the enterprise is dog slow to upgrade. We are still doing .NET 4.0, Windows Forms and targeting XP. Some of the project code was written for .NET 3.5. On the Java side, most corporations are now slowly moving from Java 6 to Java 7 and they hardly care about any alternative JVM languages. |

In some cases they will never upgrade. I'm talking about places still running WebLogic 8 and JVM 1.4.2. Huge business critical production systems. They'll probably still run on that exact stack for the next 5 years at the very minimum. Everything new gets written in whatever the new stack is, that old stack just stays there, forever.
The strange world of mega corp enterprise IT.
