rendrag Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 ms virtual is microsofts virtual machine... java virtual machine is sun microsystem's java. i'd just as well use the sun java vs ms. http://www.java.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hj_fr Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 Use Ms JVM is a bad idea, not standard.Use Sun JVM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coco Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 MS's JVM isn't supported anymore because java decided to pull the plug on MS and stop them from doing it.At the time it was an issue cause most places that needed a java vm were built with MS's in mind. So it broke a lot of sites. Now most sites have made the minor changes needed to work with sun's version and MS's version hasn't been supported for a year or so now. So really it's a no brianer, go with sun's version. Plus, it's basicly impossible to find MS's version anymore anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
member11 Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 i would go with JVM. go to java.sun.com and install jv1.5 runtime and you are all setforget about MVM because MS doesn't support it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enuffsaid Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 The only thing that bothers me about Sun Jave is, after its downloaded (what is it, 15 MB?), and installed... Go to Add/Remove programs and look at how much disk space its taking... What's that?!?! 110 MB?!?!?!?! (out of the top of my head). Ugh... for those few java pages I see, I'll settle for Microsoft Java (MS Virtual Machine)Microsoft Java = Security problemSun Java = performance problemTake your pick.If you settle for MS Java, Google is your friend. Look for "msjava" or "ms virtual machine".Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, when you install it, make sure you choose custom installation and tell it not to install docs.FORGET IT.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enuffsaid Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 I was asking about the Hard disk space it occupies. Not the version you have installed. Please reread my previous posts which you have so elegantly quoted ad infinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
