Don't b so dramatic. XP supports Java perfectly. It just doesn't install the MS JVM by default. First time you come across a java app it asks u if u want to install the component. If u say yes, then it installs it and u r all set. What this means is that u can use the JVM from a another vendor, eg Sun if u like. It looks like MS gets criticised whatever it does. WHen it bundled a browser it was told it should make the type of browser a choice. When it built in Java support it got sued by Sun so it took it out and made it an option. Now u r criticising them for giving the customer a choice of what JVM to use. Bill, exactly what should MS do about a JVM to make you happy?
