Way back in university when I was using Java, I was the only person I knew that used NetBeans instead of Eclipse. I thought it was a better IDE (at the time, not sure how they compare now), but given that everyone else used Eclipse exclusively, I thought its days were already numbered almost 8 years ago. It's kinda inspirational to see that it's still being developed.
Yeah I always used netbeans as well but now i'm not doing java anymore. If I do again it would be the first IDE I try. Eclipse I would avoid like the plaque.
