Well, thanks Sun Microsystems. Because of the court case against
Microsoft, I can no longer download and install the Microsoft Java
Virtual Machine for Windows 2000 SP4. Instead, I only have the option
to install yours. WHY? The Sun JVM is a bigger install, slower and
the worst of all, you have to have that pathetic icon in the system
tray permanently just to use Java. What on earth does it serve?
Great, it shows a few outputs from the JVM, but so fucking what. The
MS JVM was invisible and unobtrusive. It was a small download and did
the job simply. I don't need all this other crap that you have forced
on me. AND, haven't sun now done exactly what they were complaining
about from MS? My only option now is to install the Sun JVM just to
view some websites. Well, I don't fucking want to! So much for
choice. I am tired of hearing all this bull*** from Sun (and MS)
about these issues. As far as I am concerned, I don't care who writes
my JVM. I will always choose the one that works simplest and fastest.
I don't care who wrote it. I want the smallest download without the
clutter. Only MS provided that. The MS download was 5mb. The Sun
one is 14mb.
So, Sun Microsystems and all involved in this ridiculous court case
and bickering, *** YOU. Another example of corporate greed. Thanks
for forcing your *** down my throat. And worst of all, as I use
Linux on my other machine, I have to use Sun's JVM as well! Here is a
big middle finger to everyone at Sun Microsystems.
