Java is an issue for the DOJ in Oracle's proposed acquisition of Sun because it is now vital to enterprise software vendors. Theoretically at least, Java could be abused by Oracle or whoever controls it to gain power over licensees. Thank you, Debbie The issue has nothing to do with Microsoft and is in no way disparaging of Java.
