Yeah, but I remember in 1995 and afterwards where Java products popped up and applets appeared in every webpage, and it was truly slow, particularly for paupers still languishing with small amounts of RAM. Anyone remember JBuilder?

Things have probably changed significantly from then, but I do remember it being slow. Compared to today's generation who get frustrated when a webpage doesn't appear within about 3 seconds, they would lose their mind if they were transported back to 1995 (with the general speed of everything being slower).
