Lots of neat stuff in the article and ensuing comments. There was some red herring discussion of garbage collection, but a link to a very good presentation by Hans Boehm (PS) came out of it.

Java is and has always been driven by Sun's marketing motivations, it has never really lived up to it claim of cross-platform, performance 8 years later is still an issue and most of all no well known porduction apps or servers are made in Java (look at Oracle,Apache, PHP etc.). And with the sorry financial state that Sun is in today, they care less about Java or its future. Java is destined to be a middle-ware language, it has lost all its appeal on the client side and only because of the Y2K madness is it mildly popular on the server.
