Membuat Microsoft Java yang tidak kompatibel dengan Java yang asli adalah 
kesalahan besar dari Microsoft. Itu adalah pelanggaran lisensi dan Microsoft 
terpaksa membayar 20 juta dollar kepada SUN Microsystem atas kesalahannya 
itu. Oleh sebab itu, menggunakan Microsoft Java juga merupakan kesalahan.

Yakinlah, bahwa Binus akan meninggalkan Microsoft Java dan kembali ke Java 
yang asli (yang anda sebut sebagai SUN Java), karena Microsoft hanya akan 
men-support Microsoft Java hingga tahun depan (2007), dan selanjutnya HARUS 
kembali menggunakan Java yang asli. 

Berikut kutipan dari situs Microsoft di http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/java/

========
Recognizing the need to provide a smooth transition for current users of the 
Microsoft� Java Virtual Machine (MSJVM), Sun Microsystems and Microsoft have 
agreed to extend Microsoft's license to use Sun's Java source code and 
compatibility test suites. This extension allows Microsoft to support the 
MSJVM until December 31, 2007, providing customers with the ability to 
transition from the MSJVM on a schedule and plan that is most effective for 
them.

The MSJVM will reach its end of life on December 31, 2007. Customers are 
encouraged to take proactive measures to stay informed about obsolete 
software and move away from the MSJVM in a timely fashion. The MSJVM is no 
longer available for distribution from Microsoft and there will be no 
enhancements to the MSJVM. Microsoft products and SKUs currently including 
the MSJVM will continue to be retired or replaced by versions not containing 
the MSJVM on a schedule to be announced.

Obsolete software, whether in the form of unsupported products, old service 
packs, or even expired certificates, is an issue every customer needs to be 
concerned with. Microsoft software life cycle communications help customers 
identify obsolete software in a proactive and ongoing fashion.
