Hi Mephisto, you seems not very fimiliar with java, so does a lot of reporters, java is not a operating system, simple to say: java has two parts, one is language, other one is JVM. without JVM, java would just be a language, with JVM, java is a platform. JVM is used to excute java bytecodes generated from java programs, JVM is built on the top of OS or inside the browsers, in theory, if there is a JVM, the you can run the java programs, JVM is not directly compete with the OS, but make OS less important, this is why if MSFT doesn't implement JVM in windows any more, other companys still can ship the own JVMs for windows to run the java programs, MSFT can not stop it.
as for this quarter, don't worry, I actually predicted the result. check: techstocks.com
