No thanks Sun

Saw this over on Channel 9.

Sun Java ad

What the hell? We know we're using Sun Java, we had to manually install it since Java no longer ships with Windows, you've wasted millions of Windows users' time already, now you're wasting who knows how many millions of seconds by forcing us to close your own stupid pop-up ads in the system tray.

I've since removed Sun Java from all my systems.

Oh and BTW, Paul, judging from the icons displayed in your system tray, why exactly do you have all those apps/proccesses running at once? Now given you have an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ CPU and 1GB of dual-channel DDR-400 SDRAM, apparently you really shouldn't have to worry about freeing up system RAM consuming resources and what not, I'm just saying......

Wait a second, you're right, it absolutely COUDN'T be your system as it's obviously running Service Pack 1 judging from the Wireless Network Connection status icon!
