I use my Amiga as my main machine, but none of the browsers has got Java.
Javascript, yes, but no Java. It doesn't matter, though, since I've
encountered about five sites in the last five years which actually used Java,
and about two of those depended on it. It's just used for flashy effects,
nothing else.

That is indeed the real problem. I also seem to recall running Java on a IIvx,
but it wans't a particularly enjoyable experience.
