Eternl_Knight: Yeah, even after all these years and obsfucators, one can still reverse-engineer java easily enough. Currently, I'm in C++ now, and would only go to Java if I go open source 100%. Open source also has the appeal of being less of a hassle: I wouldn't have the contract support issues that you do with paying customers. BTW, if you really want to dabble in the code, its up at sourceforge: http://inkulator.sourceforge.net, I would love any suggestions or whatever.
