I wonder how many users actually have a JRE installed. I'm a Java developer and I always thought having a JRE is like having the "Start" button in the bottom-left of your Windows desktop; obvious! The last few days, some people pointed me on the fact that not everybody has the JRE installed. This has a big influence on Java developer's scope. What is your opinion about this situation?

I think most people do have JRE installed, as that is used by some internet sites and games too. There is also some bank services which require Java! You can always set JRE as an requirement for your app to work, and IMO that is not an unreasonable requirement.
