There's no way in the world MS would eliminate Java altogether. Do they think people aren't going to bitch when they can't access certain sites or run certain software just because MS wants to play Isolated Monopolist?

Even if in the worst case scenerio MS stood their ground and removed their JVM from the public, there's always the less than standard Java 2 Platform from Sun. Not as nice as the MS one, but it works nonetheless.

Oh, but I did download the latest build of the MS JVM, just for safe keeping.....
I agree.... even some of MS's own sites use Java... my grandmother plays a lot of games on zone.com which will not run without MS Java or Sun JRE......looks like they'll be changing that too if they totally remove Java
