Those 1.5 million devices are not using Java. The are using GOVJ or Google's own version of Java.
It's a billion, not a million. And it's still Java...just not the "officially sanctioned" version.

Kinda like saying Microsoft BASIC is not BASIC because it didn't come out of Dartmouth.

I just like yanking your chain... I don't do it often because then it would be boorish! No worries :rolleyes:
 
I'm just basically saying that you can't wrap your head around one paradigm.

OOP, procedural, data-flow programming, assembly, interrupt, real-time OS's are very different mindsets with a common ground. I can't even begin to wrap my head around this html stuff myself. Then embedded html stuff is different yet.

I've never had a problem with any of this. It has always come easy for me.

Dealing with idiot humans, OTOH, is where I get lost.

If humans just behaved predictably and responded to any one set of instructions... never mind; I don't want to get myself all worked up right now.
