The ability to have multiple language's targeting the same VM, as well 
as lowering the barrier for a language to become cross platform.

I think the future of computing may be to allow the programmer to choose 
whatever compiled language they want, and eventually have all languages 
compiled down to the same 'bytecode' so they can all interoperate with 
each other.
