That's a whole other argu...er, discussion, though.

I'm no programmer, hell, I don't understand most of what you guys are talking
about :DD

But you've got two different debates goin' on here:

1. Java is just annoying. It's bloated, it's really unnecessary (same tasks
accomplished with less overhead), and, correct me if I'm wrong, but is it not
easily used as a tool for creating malware? (note I said 'easily', as in
'script kiddie' easy)

Agree, disagree, whatever.

2. What you said.

Len's arguing de jure (as was I, though somewhat less...eloquently?), you're
arguing de facto. Dig? ;)
