Not I.

Six years in the making, the original bug[1] at Sun is interesting to 
read. They deleted two years worth of comments including where Sun 
declared the 64-bit arch a "server only environment."

OT: The saggy performance and saggy corporate attitude has left a bad 
taste in my mouth, which leads me to never support or consider Java as a 
serious programming language.
