And each app has to have it's very own dedicated supply line (export
JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java1). Way too much caffeine is right!

I am still not impressed with java as a form of anything other than
system resource hog with graphics.

Python, wxpython, gtkpython (runs on any platform, not proprietary),
perl, perl/tk, gtk-perl (ditto on the platform). And they run faster,
easier to setup and maintain, smaller footprint, don't involve Sun...
