But you actually use Sun's javac to compile the initial phase. If I wrote a compiler that took executables produced by MS's Visual Studio and compiled them into some virtual machines bytecode, and it didn't worth with executables from GCC or any other compiler, I could say "you write your programs using Microsoft Visual Studio, and then run the result through this convertor" in full legality; I couldn't even describe my product if I weren't allowed to. This is in fact exactly what Google has done.

It has only been out half a year, of those 180 million cellphones, how many were produced in the last 6 months? iPhone start to look much more successful (but of course the sales rates have already dropped off).
I remember you; you said the same damn thing when MySpace was bought for 1 billion. Did you know that shortly after they were bought they made a 1 billion dollar advertising deal?
Every one said the myspace buyout was *crazy* that there was no way they were worth 1 billion; shortly after the buyout, they signed an ad deal for exactly 1 billion.

Hopefully the next xkcd comic will be about slashdotters who do ascii art without even hitting preview. With velociraptors.
At least we share one thing in common; in the states we don't have colour TV either.

If you played Link's Awakening, you would realize that kind of breaking the fourth wall is right at home.
Far be it for a professional journalist like yourself to read all the way to page 2!

If they do a boatload of them at a cutrate price they will run into problems with people using them for phishing, etc.
Huge spoiler, don't click unless you want to have the ending to one of the greatest movies of all time ruined forever.
Interesting--I guess food stamps and corn subsidies don't exist in your fantasy world?
