java is in a virtual machine
provides a library for graphics with java
all members and methods need a security scope (static by default)
everything must be in a class
every variable that holds a class needs to be new'd
can't do memory optimization tricks very well
a culture of easy and effective and free (as in beer, and as in freedom) documentation
3 versions: J2SE - standard, J2ME - mobile, J2EE enterprise
