Sun Microsystems announced plans Monday to make its new Java Virtual Machine for Microsoft's Windows XP available as a free download.
The new Java Virtual Machine (JVM) allows Java applications -- from games to collaboration software--to run on Windows XP.
Sun says the new JVM will also offer new multimedia and animation support as well as enhanced performance, among other things.
"We're committed to delivering the best interactive user experience on the Web through Java technology," said Rich Green, vice president of Java and XML software at Sun, in a statement.
Sun expects Web publishers, developers and enthusiasts to preview the new JVM. It can be found on the company's Java Web site.
