This has been the case for a few years, but the bad rep Java got early
on is following it around like a stray dog.  "The proof is in the
pudding" doesn't seem to apply in these cases. Its kind of sad, but I
don't care. I like the fact that very few people use Java for desktop
apps, it makes me feel like I'm elite.
