Re: [A85: Re: Here it is, the Sqrxz and Super Mario 86 level competition!]




and you need to get your **** together, cause MRJ, the newest version, goes
with the JDK 1.2 standard, as far as i have heard.  also, new in mac os 9,
the os automaticaly updates itself through the internet.  also, us
registered apple developers have heard from apple that mac os X is probably
going to have native built in java support, using external object code
libraries for updates.  so when sun comes out with a new version of the java
spec, you can take the JDK libraries, and plop it in the system folder, and
instant update, mainly thanx to the Mach Kernel that OSX is going to be
based off of.  And yes, i know, i use solaris too through my dad's office,
and i know that has the best java support... right now.
