Hmmm.  Not to start too much of a flamewar here, but you do know that Oracle, 
since 8i, contains boatloads of Java code, right?  You can even write stored 
procedures in Java.  And that the one place I see Java really succeeding 
right now is on the server - think app servers like JBoss, WebSphere, Bea, 
for example.  I'm probably biased - DocVue, our product here at Full Circle, 
is a server side app written in Java.  So I may have an opinion on the 
subject.  But this is a Linux list, not a Java list, so I'll shut up now.
