Let's clarify that, all Microsoft accessibility is broken again at most.  For 
those using Apple, VoiceOver still talks, and Linux is certainly unaffected by 
any of this on the console level at least.

Laugh I think you and sina are not alone but then what are our choices.  
Microsoft just put out a new windows live messenger and once again all 
accessibility is broken yippy.

Hi,
Lol finally! Someone who feels like I do about them. Although in this case, who 
can blame them... If a successful app runs on their platform... Maybe they'll 
get some of what Google got for using Java.

Why does anyone bother trying to meet a constnatly moving target by the most 
dishonest company in the biz.
 
I refuse to change any project based on this information. Apple can go die.
 
Take care,

Hmm. Not what I want to hear after just downloaded NetBeans, Eclipse, latest 
JDK, Sappy  and SodBeans!!!
 
Maybe  Oracle ticked off Apple big time or something.
 
What's the point of trying to accomodate everyone by coding in Java if Apple's 
deprecating it?
 
And I like Java and want to do a sizeable project in it, but I have to support 
a Mac as well...
 
Come on Apple, don't drop Java!
 
Is this the beginning of the end of Java?
