by Brian Wilson 12/1/96 (brianw@engr.sgi.com)
First, the Good Things About Java:
The Worst Of Java: Performance
The Next Worst Part of Java: Too Many Pointers, Too Little Pointer Support
Java's Schizoid GUI Toolkit
Method Parameters: by Reference or by Value?
Java's Threads Disaster
Garbage Collection: the Bad Idea that Won't Go Away
Java Exceptions:
Portability
Final Word: Is Java the Future of All Computing?
