Re: How should I start?

Sun's java site has many examples to use java functionality.

Javadocs, which is java documentation is readily available, I usually
type in class name into google and "feel lucky".

I've used Eclipse and Netbeans and find Eclipse is not something you
can dive into unless you have lots of time and patience. NetBeans is
easier to install, setup and code. Eclipse is fine if someone else set
it up for you. Do you like vi? emacs? Those are probably good
options if you know them.

I've looked at j2ee, and save for servlets&jsps, I am waiting for it to
get more mature.
