Has anyone seen this before? Dont ask why but I read the latest End User License Agreement for the new Microsoft Hotmail Upgrade and thought that this was interesting,
" 11. NOTE ON JAVA SUPPORT. THE SOFTWARE MAY CONTAIN SUPPORT FOR PROGRAMS WRITTEN IN JAVA.

Hopefully the heavies have already divvied up the universe and there is room in it for us.
