I decided against Java, I think my friend was right. I downloaded this
applet that showed reflecting water, christ it was soooo slow to run.
That clinched it for me, it was obviously the fact that it was a java

Anyway I have taken my friend advice, he suggested that I learn a more
modern language, one that runs faster. Thanks for all the comments
anyway.
