Java&Linux

[Arnaldo Riquelme]

I'm a bigginer linux user, and the more I learn about it , the more I
like it.(specially because I have access to the source code).
I'd like to hear you opinion about Java applications, applets on Linux.
What advantage do you see running java apps on this platform , rather
than running it on NT?
Do you think Java-Linux is a good combination for enterprice
apps.(client/server, etc).

thanks
