Predictions for Java
It appears that Java is being embraced by the
Internet community.  And at the same time, the
PC community is finally merging with the
Unix/Internet community.  This is a big thing!
It seems like everyone, including major 
players (Microsoft, IBM, Sun, Netscape, etc.),
minor players (Borland, Symantic, etc.) on down
to individual developers are all excited about
Java!  I see a huge potential for revolution in
this already revolutionary industry, and that
is very exciting.  I too am excited about this 
new revolution and plan to be a part of it!
