Well, don't forget that both HP and IBM's version of java are still
customized for their OS's and thus pure java won't run correctly on either
of these platforms. So really, java is write once, run on Sun or Windows
(courtesy of the courts), then wait for IBM & HP to patch or create your own
patches...

For me its simple: I'm 95% Windows, and the other 5% are spent with a SSH
on a Linux server. And as DCL is still only Mac+Linux, I'm out :(

That's why Im prefer programming in Java - you get cross-platform out of
the box (OK, except for the installers on MacOS X :(.
