Just deleted Java

I just deleted Java from my system. Is it just me, or is it a bloated piece of crap? And let's not even mention the fact that it hogs hard-drive space by keeping all old versions on your machine.

I just got sick of webpages performing really poorly while some bloated Java app was trying to load.

    Something is definitely wrong. I have only the newest Sun JDK, JRE and mozilla plugin installed, and there are no problems.

    Wow, that doesn't look like spyware at all. The stuff it supposedly does can be done manually, with ease.

    It's actually very good, and it's not scumware at all.

    When I installed Ubuntu it was using IcedTea. When I installed java-6-sun it seemed to work better. Any reason?

    Yes. There are many open sources JVMs, but they all suck. The official Sun Java is the only one that is worth a shit.
