Java is extremely slow. And from what I heard from someone at Veritas it's
even slower in 4.5
I guess it will be windows for me from now on....I'll miss Motif

Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] RE: Motif GUI going away


 This is not good news.  I use the Motif GUI on a dial up line and I dread
the possibility of using Java GUI on a dial up line(now I have to spend more
time at office doing my netbackup stuff). Is there a specific reason for
doing away with Motif GUI ?

But still Java Sucks....

Hope Veritas is listining..
