I'm confused.  Navigator & Explorer each possess Java or JavaScript
features, right?  So how does the Apple JVM come into the picture?  Is
it ever invoked except by its own folder of demo applets?  Or is it a
waste of space?

It is easier to update the Apple version if you wish to use an older
browser, with MSIE you can tell it which version you wnat to use.  As
for which version of the Java spec each supports and how good they are,
I've no idea.
