Sorry David; got to disgree with you on this one. A few developers are
irrelevant when considered against the potential reward. That was
$13.873 _billion_, with a B. the A few good men like yourself wouldn't
even effect the second decimal point...

On the contrary, as an existing and prospective customer, I shall KEEP
telling Sun, LOUDLY and PUBLICLY exactly what I want from them.

Although not here; I have ruffled enough feathers already!

BTW Isn't it somewhat ironic that the only person who seems to
(somewhat) agree with me is the guy from Sun? :)

Sheath your blade young sir; I shall trouble you no more...
