I have been developing Java on Linux for years and have nothing but success.
I have been running Enlightenment for most of that time with hardly any
problems... actually I have not had it crash since 0.16.4 (perhaps even
0.16.3).

As for webbrowsers, yikes.  Netscape & Mozilla still crash/hang all of the
*ucking time.  Mozilla has gotten much, much better... but is still dawg
slow.

Ever since JavaOne (perhaps a little before), I have been back on the Mac OS
X trip.  One of the last sessions that I went to on Friday was the OS X &
Java one.  I was blown away by a rendering test that they had running
between a P4 1.x GHz and a 5xx G4.  The PC did not even have a chance.

I still have to convince my boss that I "need" one to do my job, but I will
think of something.

Any ways, I was currious what you meant here.  Did you give up and go back
to Windows or are you still using Linux for desktop.
