About 20 years ago I downloaded Java using a dial-up modem. It was 28MB, divided into 20 downloads of 1.4MB each, corresponding to 20 floppy disks. It took ages. Then when I wanted to actually use it, it turned out I still needed documentation, another 20MB download. Which is where I gave up. I think you need Java to program Android apps. If that's the case, then I guess I'm not going to be writing any such apps (but there's a dozen extra hoops as well to jump through so it's never going to happen). It's one of those languages suitable for other people to use. -- bartc
