Yup, Linux ate Sun and Sun shot Java in the head hiring Jonathan Schwartz

I don’t care what anyone or the courts say: Android stole Java and Google and all the ex Java people it hired know it

Imagine the outcome if Java was licensed correctly and Schwartz didn’t just give to Eric

On one hand, you're probably right. On the other, I'm pretty happy Larry Ellison doesn't own Java.
