As I have pointed out elsewhere sometimes some piece of software isn't a good match for someone. Me personally I don't like Mac OS X or Ubuntu Unity. I don't say they are bad but I will make an effort to avoid having to use them. (And I can tell you why.) I can clearly see how some people might have similar issues with my favourite software. That said: if last time was a few years ago and you youch upon Java code again you could give it another try; maybe it works better on a modern machine?
