From what I can see, Inprise jettisoned JFileChooser and rolled their
own, a smarter class/package/file browser.  It's quite nice, and it
groks select-multiple.

They may still use JFileChooser here and there, but I haven't noticed it
yet.  All the primary pain spots I know of have been addressed.

No matter what we think of Linux versus FreeBSD, etc., the one thing I
really like about Linux is that it has Microsoft worried.  Anything
that kicks a monopoly in the pants has got to be good for something.
