I Use Matlab, It is a dog, an old flea bitten slow dog. I used Java when it first came out because I thought it was the coolest idea in the world. I rapidly became very disillusioned. I try again every year or so, but from a performance stand point native code is still going to be faster. Java is also double damned on Nix because X is not exactly fast, And I use the Xi graphics servers. Oh well even slow it beats having to use Micro$oft (sorry Eugene) ===== -- "R.
