Just dandy with Java applets or Java applications? 4.0 with the
appropriate treatment of libc to satisfy Netscape will run Java applets
just dandy, too. I have yet to see *any* Java environment on *any* OS
run full-fledged Java applications (like the Corel Office and Applix
Anyware demos) without crashing, so I would be very surprised if 3.0.3
worked any more 'just dandy' with these than with 4.0.
