I just did a test... tried to open a java applet in Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer. I have java installed but none of the browsers was able to open the applet! Suffice to say, applets were forgotten by Sun and Oracle doesn't remember them either. Besides, applets IMO always appeared alien to a browser. The idea was good - to be able to embed a rich application in a browser, but the execution was weak. Flash/Actionscript whatever else was a better execution.
Just to clarify, what do you mean by dedicated server? Why do you need a "dedicated server" for the webstart solution?
