clipped from www.pcworld.com The Lessons of Eclipse Two things to note here: First, open source does not mean unpaid and unwashed nerds writing code in basements.

Eclipse is everywhere in software development these days; the coders I work with who hack away at PCWorld.com spend their days in Eclipse.
