>>>Beddow said TCI defers to Sun, of Mountain View, Calif., as the
"experts" on Java.<<<

Does this mean that MSFT can install their system on TCIs boxes, including the Java component, when SUN says they are good to go? That's kind of interesting. Also, if HP does produce a compliant Java which MSFT uses, isn't that a fig leaf for MSFT having caved on Java to get the TCI contract?

I take back (again) everything I said about Sun needing to make Java public domain. True, I'm still unhappy with the technical progress on it, which has been amateurish. But 'scuse me Scott, anyway. I was very naive about how this would have to work.
