                I'd like to see any of them justify it though... Ps. Nice website it's very useful, any chance of a button that when clicked stops articles being edited (or just making articles user editable once they have been edited)?

                                Marking Java as 'The worst code I've ever seen...' IMHO is not a manifestation of equilibrium. :)

                                        .net slower than java or java slower than .net.... I can justify java slower than .net with about 10 minutes of coding (and 30mins of java tools downloads). Please don't ask me too though, really don't want the hassel of downloading java stuff.

                                          But of course, they are wrong and we are right. Why? Well, because we are, well.... us.
