                  No. If you not develop on Java you don’t need their virtual machine installed. The most web app using Java and JSP are used in the intranet corporate networks. AFAIK nobody uses applets or Java swing anymore.

                                      Yeah it's really invasive, the .net framework never seems invasive at all by comparison. I avoid the java runtime now like the plague.

                                        Much to many peoples' shagrin, the DoD has recently developed two major Intelligence applications (desktop apps, not web apps) using Java. So you need the VM installed and then the app will run. Ug! To make matters worse, we (someone else in the org, not me!) have to figure out how to interface a .NET application with a Java API that one of the applications exposes.

                                          Saying Java is great because it works with all platforms is like saying anal sex is great because it works with all genders.
