All of which really begs us to ask the question: Do we really want to be 
distributing bytecode apps, which may or may not run depending on the 
JVM on the target machine?

With the greatest respect to JBuilder - which I think is a great tool - 
I'd rather distribute native code binaries. Of course, I'm building 
apps, not applets.
