I find the above really strange, since when I look around on the net,
I see nothing even close to what can be done today using Java applets.

And Java is open source now also. isn't?

If you can show me just ONE web site, with simulations and
animation written in Javascript and html5, that are as good and
advanced as say the following well known Java applets sites, then
I will believe you:

http://www.falstad.com/mathphysics.html
http://www.myphysicslab.com/index.html
http://www.ph.biu.ac.il/~rapaport/java-apps/

And thousands more.

All what I have seen so far for demos written in Javascript and HTML5
are child like little toy applications compared to what can be done with
Java applets, today.

And Java applets now run well, not like many years ago, when, yes, they
did have performance issues, but it seems to me most of this is fixed now,
I hardly have a problem now running a Java applet these days.

Sometimes I get missing class error while loading, but that seems
to be a packaging/configuration error from the author, not Java itself.

Why the industry have to reinvent the wheel again every few years,
I never know. Why not improve what works today to make it better?
