Hi,
Just thought i would point out that cygnus have produced gcj, compile
java source/class files to machine code. It is in the very early
stages, doesn't even have most of the awt. But i suppose this a
similar situation to the java port to linux. i.e. it may take a while
but it will get finished, and i should think at some point it will have
java3D.
But others may know more about this !
