    Java
    Hey guys, I heard a rumor that Microsoft wasn't going to support Java by the year 2008. Has anyone else heard this? If so, do you know what effect, if any, this willhave on Java programming. What I mean is will Java be phased out or is there a lot more uses for Java. I don't know that much about it and was going to take an online course next spring. I didn't know if it would be worth it. I appreciate any input. Thanks.

    Don't panic as all that's ending is Micro$ofts Java Virtual Machine, More info here.
    You will still be able to run and program in Java for the foreseeable future.
