Dan, you need to stop blaming big bad Microsoft for everything and start criticizing the incompetence of the competition. The Java based Network Computer has been an enormous disaster because of Sun's foolish desire to see Java as "the great equalizer of platforms" (Goslings exact words). They ended up taking forever to design a cross platform gui toolkit just so they could breath some new life into their dying workstations. With the Javastation DOA, Sun has changed their tune and is quietly downplaying the NC and loudly talking up server side Java. Of course servers are Sun's strength and they have done an excellent job of neglecting this area while trying to stop the NT workstation onslaught.
