I just got my Rasberry Pi and first I tried the default Hard float image.
But below that, it has a soft float image which is says for Java. So,
I tried that for Java, or at least what I thought I needed for Java.

Well, of course, there is Java that now supports hard float.....
In case you are looking for hard float, here it is.

Get the hard float!!! In case you don't know, Hard Float is floating
point done in hardware. 

Thanks to Steve for his presentation.

"There are two ways of constructing a software design. One way is to
make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies. And the other
way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies."
