Abbreviated Financial Statement11

• Java is software for writing programs that can run on any device connected to a network.

• This unique versatility means that people working on completely different operating systems can work on the same document or play the same game as long as the program is written in Java.

• This is a fundamentally different vision of computing from the PC and fits perfectly with the World Wide Web’s way of doing things.

12

• Java was poised to affect the technology market in three important ways.• Versatility• “write once, run anywhere”

• Savings• “reduce creative, distribution, and

transfer costs”• Competition

“We always thought we were onto something with Java—that it was our one big chance to challenge Microsoft and change the economics of the business.”
