  Just to satisfy my own curiosity, what is this Java Web Start?  The
page on sun.com says:

# JavaTM Web Start software gives you the power to launch full-featured
# applications with a single click from your Web browser.

  But, MindTerm and other Java applications do this already?  What's the
difference between using this thing and the normal way?
