I work with Oracle Applications which now has a Java thin client front end.
Actually, it runs entirely from appletviewer. That makes client machine set
up a breeze.
One question I have is how does one define "thin". It still takes a lot of
software to achieve that.

4) It's SLOW (I don't care what anyone says about "Java is almost as fast as
C++". BS.)
I think the momentum for Java has slowed, but I also think it's starting to
settle in and find its niche. It *will* eventually find it's place, but I
don't think the world will be rewritten in Java as Sun originally dreamed.
In the end, it will be just another language.
