I am deaf and like to learn java plug in but I am very bored because it is not available CC. I dont underatand what these people said. Some of you can write on CC for people deaf. Very much thanks.

Not sure why any of these people are saying what they are, but I think the speaker did a great job. If you are bored watching this it likely means you have nothing to gain from watching it.

So you just wanted him to show you 10 slides? Not how Quake 2 now runs as a tab in Firefox that could potentially be dragged out to play on the desktop as an installed application? You're a hard person to please!

It seems to be one of those talks where you want to flip through the slides in 10 minutes instead of wasting an entire hour.

Ya...I was sick of that and stopped working on Applets some 10 years back. Didn't use broadband internet then...but I guess, so far as applets are concerned, it doesn't make any difference even now

Come on! Let's not make our lives worse! We've been there and it hurt. I am waiting for the presenter to show us how fast the applets load. I am sure they will freeze our browsers for 10 seconds until the JVM starts up. It doesn't matter what happens next.
