Actually, I like Java (the language, NOT the fat J2EE crap),
and a trimmed-down Java is also suited for small devices, eg.
can be partially done in hardware. (I'm not yet used to Limbo,
maybe I'll dive into it later).

The idea behind is having a *very small* jvm (eg. kvm or further
trimmed-down jamvm with only very few base classes) which runs on
virtually any device anywhere in the net and build a big grid out
of these devices, recycling unused resources on uncountable of
bored machines around the world, from routers to big servers ;P
