Well actually you can download Java and buy MyEclipse for $30.
Now you actually have a point... but the problem is, what happens when it just doesn't work? When you pop in the .NET CDs, start developing, and notice you don't have good internationalization, that your pages suck at web standards (yeah, those BGCOLOR properties in Visual Studio are just *great*!) and that if you want a little bit from the "way they do it" (i'm not saying "the right way to do it" because it's NOT the right way!) you can't do nothing. Ahh... if you want to see the source code because the documentation's lacking ?
What I value most of the Java community is your chance to actually make a difference in what you need and what's the best way of doing things (well in almost every project but the dictatorial-managed-Hibernate one). It's the "open source" part what I like the most - not quite the technology, which I find lacking in some areas.
