 Are you trying to make me puke? How does MicroSoft adding proprietary shit
to Java so it ONLY runs on Winblows "liberate" it? I can run (pure) Java on
Linux and Win95, it comes with OS/2. Do you also think a web-browser or word
processor is a "component" of the operating system? Do you Work for M$?
