The promise of 'write once, run anywhere' was also another much talked about feature at the same time, but I think this only became a benefit a few years later with JREs available for many different platforms.

Same remark about PHP... Hi Dion,

These three reasons are why Java actually succeeded, but they are not why Java initially received hype (and if you think about them, they are really nothing to be excited about, there were plenty of languages meeting these requirements back then…).

Same remark about PHP…
