Do people write real software with java or is still just web stuff?

How do you define "real"?

Things like a database servers, web servers, web browsers, email clients, office suites, cad programs, desktop publishing, multimedia processing, games (?), device drivers, etc. It seems to me that java is mostly used as a glue language where there's lots of other choices (perhaps python or perl). -- Fraser Campbell <fraser-Txk5XLRqZ6CsTnJN9+BGXg at public.gmane.org> http://www.wehave.net/ Georgetown, Ontario, Canada Debian GNU/Linux -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
