Do you like java? I hate it!

I removed it from my computer when I first installed XP.

I don't mind

I don't exactly like it but I don't mind it on my computer

Slows down my computer and I never go on java site anyway.

Well, its a nice language to program in, so ya, I like it

i personally "like" it the same i like .net or any other programming language.

pros: easy programming; useful on the internet

cons: programs based on java take too much resources; security risk

I don't mind .net but I haven't installed that.

i like it and i also program it

and what do u mean u took it off the comp when u installed XP? XP doesnt include java in its install

So this leads me to ask:

Which XP release did you install? XP Gold, XP SP1, XP SP1a, or XP SP2?

If Gold or SP1 then you removed MS JVM which is nothing more than a bastardized Java implementation. If SP1a or SP2 then Java wasn't installed.

Of course, I assume you already know this but the difference between the two is important to note. You can't really compare MS JVM and SUN Java. It's like comparing Sweet Corn to Cattle Corn. One is edible by humans and tastes good while the other is edible to humans but tastes foul.

Personally I dislike normal programs written in Java however it has more than enough uses and positive points outside of that.

Java? Mmm.. coffee.

Its notbad i dont mind it. Im going to start programming using it. Is it a easy language to learn?

at first no but like any language u get used to it, when u rly get into it with crazy codes like i am now is when it gets fun

Beleive it or not, but I've installed java on my computer.

Just for limewire. LOL

lol, but why did you respond to this thread?

i like it

i don't like it myself - sure its good for portability and web apps, but programs made in it are bulky and slow in some cases

much better to stick with c++ in my opinion
