Welcome to Number6's Java Place

Welcome to my Java page. Currently things are still kinda under construction, so keep checking in if you like. Mainly this is collection of links and programs that I use when programming Java and I think others may find them useful, too. Oh, sorry about the lack of graphics...I'll fire up the Gimp one of these days and put something together.

Be sure to check What's New for the latest updates.
