And I wonder, why were we ever concerned about speed issues?

I had an idea for an interesting project, which would provide remarkable portability: A Java VM server for a Mach4 MK, which could then run Sun's JavaOS, or any other OS written in Java. Considering that JavaOS is not free, it would perhaps be a good excuse to implement the Linux kernel in Java, as had been thrown around a bit. This second project could draw also from the work done on MkLinux.
Maybe when I return to school and have more time...
What do you think?
