Might as well write an article "C++'s done, time to stick a fork in it." This idiot hasn't got a clue of just how widespread Java is in enterprise programming.

Perhaps it's time to stop allowing java applets to run unchallenged in web browsers

yup.

, but fer crying out loud, this is like blaming Ford for drunk driving deaths...

No. Ford builds cars with good quality *debugged* safety features. From the number of vulnerabilities reported in Java, over the past year or so, it seems that Sun/Oracle can't be trusted to either design or debug their own code. Perhaps they've been hiring exAdobe peeps?

If I had a nickel for every damn time I watched a Windows user just blindly click on "OK"

Yea.  People will always be people.

Also, Apple's solution is coming in Mountain Lion, and you all are going to howl like stuck pigs about it, because it's "Application Signing", the App store on steroids, where only approved apps will run on OS X.

Gatekeeper *by default* will require app signing, but it's all overrideable. Goto "blindly click".

And ML... That's the OS that will run on only 1/4 of the Mac userbase? Yea. That's a good solution. Fragmenting the userbase always works in the long term.
