    Question Java Virtual Machine

    I have Windows XP Home Edition. Does anyone know how I can get the Java VM? Apparently Sun sued Microsoft so I can't download it.

    java sued microsoft from making there own version of a JVM that did not follow java standards, you can still get a real jvm off of the sun site at http://java.sun.com/getjava/download.html if you want the SDK (Standard Developers Kit) to write your own java apps go to: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/download.html here you can also find the API there too. if you want an IDE check out www.jcreator.com or www.netbeans.org if you want a powerful IDE... but its written in java so u'll need a decent box to run it :rooleyes:, and stay away from jBuilder (read my signature )



    and while you're at it learn Intercal (or its platform independent flavour: jIntercal)!

    1) philosophy gives you a better understanding of life
    2) develops rational thinking
    3) philosophy is EVERYWHERE: even object oriented programming is a philosophy
    4) philosophy is one of then greatest accomplishments in human history and thus in and ENDS in itself and thus does not need to be a means
    5) philosophy can replace religion, thus no need for silly old jesus and other hocus pocus
    6) everyone w/ a PhD has some form of philosophy
    7) i might want to be a philosophy professoer
