Crap! I wish I could find the email where I emphatically stated that one day Oracle would figure out a way to extort money for the use of Java (they got ownership after they acquired Sun Microsystems). I knew they would eventually not be able to resist the temptation. At that time I received quite a number of "boos" and "you're crazy" and "that will never happen" responses. HAHAHAHAHA.
I'm glad I never did more than dabble in it. Like any language it's got its good and bad. But thank goodness I never released an application that would now put a noose around my customer's or employer's necks.

Never really messed w/Java myself. Got a book on it Many, many years ago - but, didn't actually follow-up on it.
