[cisco-voip] Venting about Java

[Simon, Bill]

Hi Geoff, thanks for the info.  All along I'd been sticking to the Microsoft
VM for CCM Admin because "that's the way it's supposed to be" - but if it
works with Sun's VM that may help remove one piece from the mess.  

Unity Admin loads Java on any screen where the Media Master control exists
(e.g. recorded greeting recording and playback using web controls and sound
card or through a VM port)
