I've started Java a few days ago.

I've moved on from php. Java is so much more fun, and it clicks for me! I'm already writing basic programs.

I can't wait until noob007 gets here


I haven't done too much with Java yet, mostly just looked at Buildism and Minecraft source codes and messed around a bit; but I've also messed around with PHP and I don't know if it's the examples I was using, but Java seems better to me.

Next to C++ I find Java easier.

PHP is good for what it's made for -- easy web pages. But not much else. Java's okay, I guess.

I personally don't think it's good at what it claims to be good for -- large-scale applications.

Java is a memory hog.

[noob007]

Indeed.

I can agree there. I can't run more than one large-scale Java application at one time without my comp crashing or becoming incredibly slow due to memory overload.
