I just played the video game Wakfu (I'd recommend trying it and it's free): it's a graphics heavy game written in Java (and uses JOGL I believe for OpenGL functionality) and it bundles its own JRE. That's a much better distribution practice than trying to convince the world that everyone should maintain a Java runtime on every computer. The plan that Java was going to be ubiquitous on every client computer is long gone. Consumers generally don't care and shouldn't care about the programming infrastructure used to create their applications.
I'm just going to notify that there's a thread in progress at "[email protected]" about the argument of bundled JREs, etc.
