ok guys, I know it would sound weird that a Java programmer wants to
avoid a Java IDE, but if you think about it that is just the perfect
reason to avoid it heehee... that is, a programmer knows that the
drawback of an interpreted language is its low speed, and so wouldn't it
be natural that he would want to avoid doubling this drawback (that is,
in the IDE execution PLUS the drawbacks in debugging a JAVA software)??


I think if you think java is interpreted, you're not a java programmer,
since you evidently know rather little about it.

- Which is more lightweight: Eclipse or NetBeans?

You know, I'm the lightweight kinda guy (I use winamp lite for instance,
heehee...) and I have this 3.2mhz >Celeron< machine with 750mb or RAM...
It goes pretty well with the constant tuning I give it, but I got really
MAD when I tried IntelliJ and I had this little delay before the IDE
menus (swing I think) would open and all... :P


I recommend you don't try Eclipse. Eclipse is lovely, but it's big. Really
big. Western Samoan big. I installed it on a machine with a few other
IDEs, and when i came back, it had eaten them.
