Maybe not to you, but many people don't have the Java engine on their
machine; so for them it is useless. If you want to target all users,
you must make minimal assumptions about the system they use.

And, but this is my personal opinion, java is the worst idea since
Napoleon tried to invade Russia. You can maybe use it for
web-pages, but that's about it.
