Well there's Microsoft's Java Machine and MicroSun's Java.. In my
experience, MicroSun's product is inferior... I tried accessing web-based
server access that uses Java, playing Literati and other Yahoo online games
and various other Java-based sites and found that MicroSun's Java is
painfully slow, doesn't work on every Java site and makes the text in some
cases too small to read. Deleting it and installing Microsoft's own Java
Machine cured all of these problems. Nevertheless, nothing beats playing MM
on an emulator!
