the biggest problem
"The worn out claim of write once and run anywhere has NEVER worked. Not once. In fact every time Sun changes Java it breaks old code. One of the biggest complaints I've heard about Java is the constant need to recompile the code every time some thing (hardware, OS, Java itself) changes. "

yes that is a big problem, think that is why most stop development at like version 1.3, not only that ms was FORCED to leave ms java at around that version as well i think, but do not keep up with it, cause it's a lost cause
