I find this hard to swallow. If this were true, then how did Java become so popular in comparison to languages such as C/C++ that DID have these features? Where do you find Java 1.6 not being used? The app server vendors are typically many years behind in adoption, so you can't use that for guidance. From what I have seen, desktops either have 1.5 or 1.6 on them now. Most development environments are still 1.5 because 1.6 has only been available for slightly over a year. This has always been the way of adoption of new platforms.
