By engaging in such brain-dead upgrade-treadmill behavior, java is committing suicide, because te biggest reason people use java is on the road and across platforms. I also wish java would push to have working versions on all versions of android and linux so we can use java software instead of masturbate computers. - = - Vasos Panagiotopoulos, Columbia'81+, Reagan, Mozart, Pindus, BioStrategist http://www.panix.com/~vjp2/vasos.htm ---{Nothing herein constitutes advice.
