Let me inject some reality, Java is nice but let's remember the real slogan is "Write once and Debug everywhere". I do like Java but let's not kid ourselves since everytime you move your code to a new OS or new JVM you need to re-test it. The SUN JDK was/is no buggier than the MSFT JVM and until Symantec's recent JIT, MSFT JVM was the quickest on NT.

Regarding security, checkout the 1.2 security model. The sand box model was too restrictive to develop realword applications. As a result the new security model is not much more restrictive that downloading a running any other executable in a browser.
