Here’s even more: Microsoft has announced that it will include the Java Virtual Machine in the first Windows XP Service Pack, due later this summer — but reaffirmed plans to remove the technology from future editions of its operating systems. JVM software allows the Windows XP OS to run applications written in Java, a programming language created by San Jose’s Sun Microsystems Inc.
Sun filed a federal antitrust suit against Microsoft when the original version of XP shipped without any ability to read the language. (Sun offers its own software for XP, which can be downloaded at java.sun.com/ getjava/download.html.)
