"Java has already resulted in a revolutionary demand for servers and this is just the beginning! "

Addi, that is rediculous. Where are these Java applications that are deployed that are creating this demand? What companies have deployed them? What applications are they?

You are making the mistake of confusing dubious future projections with current demand. Java is an insignificant force in current server demand.

"The thin client, server centric is becoming the new computing model. It is still early to visualize this however it is much easier to visualize this now than about a year ago."

Can you explain to me how "visualizing" the thin client results in current server sales? Alternately, can you tell me just who is using thin clients right now? (And no fair counting Citrix clients, since that is not Java.)

Again, you are confusing "visualizing" what might be with what is.
