>>This is one of the brilliant (the only one)
marketing moves Sun has made - making people think Java is some sort of gift to the
world, and not just a way to sell more Sun products.


Java is a gift for it promises OS independence. IMO, it is a gift to the world, and I have no problem if it is a way for SUN to sell more products. What's wrong with that when their product is better than competetion if not the best?
At least they deliver what they advertise, now. Not a year or 2 from now.
Regardless of microsock product quality, I do not accept the principles it bases its business on. This crush and destroy competition mentality is not good for consumers. If it's up to Bully Billy, he'd love to be the only supplier of software; OS on down. If no one stops such practices, sooner than you think we'll be getting all our needs from microsuck. i'll let you reflect on how good that would be.

"We're doing what's best for the consumer" gives such great laughs.
