You turned it into a philosophical discussion which is kind of boring now.

I was adding other uses of Java to your original post. Tried to help but I
see your more interested in semantics.

Well, my first post of the thread was pretty dead on "nobody" vs "somebody". Yes, it's about semantics.

I'm interested in other uses of Java too, of course. You don't have to convince me that there are, and I think that the assertion is easy to demonstrate. Ricky added more examples, and I'm working with desktop industrial applications for years with big corporates. It's the end-user segment that, I think, need to be clarified.

So, I figure that the US judiciary system has some requirements similar to the one of auto-dealers you mentioned, or perhaps there's a technical problem with HTML and signed uploads (it looks as it's the same strict requirement for italian business consultants). Architecturally speaking, and considering that upgrade problems aren't rare circumstances, I'd probably prefer to see a webapp for that kind of software if I was in charge of it. So, it might even be *bad* to have Java there, but it's there. The presence of Java on the desktop is mostly underestimated, this is my point.
