The Java RE is not part of FC3 either. - "Does not work under Virtual PC" - no one said it will, and if it doesn't it's the Virtual PC guys fault. - "Borland Builder/Java is a resource hog" - complain to Borland and or Sun. - "Unbearably slow on my old 128MB box" - sorry, software upgrades and hardware upgrades go hand in hand. If you feel that's bad, complain upstream to the developers working on KDE/Gnome/Other components for all the new functionality they added since the last release.
