That's the funniest thing I've ever heard.

Java is gay, the only thing it's good for is portability.

Think about this... Limewire is written in Java. This is probably it's main strength, and it's main weakness. The good thing is, it can run on Windows, Mac/MacOSX, or Linux. The bad thing about it is ... well, it's Java. Even with the ability to run on any platform, and lots of cutting edge features, Limewire, comes in at, what, third now? Behind Bearshare and Morpheus? (I could be wrong about the coming in third, but that's the way I see it.) Java may be good if you're not running Windows, and you can't find any decent native software to run on your machine, but other than that.... bleh.

If I was running a Mac or Linux, though, I'd be using Limewire in a heartbeat.
