Summary: Nice IDE, fast and stable
Review: Besides it is a very lightweighted Java IDE (it runs and compiles really fast), it also comes with a lot of nice features; the debugger is superb, since it is compliant with JPDA architecture it makes you able to debug remotely...even along high-end application servers (p.e. WebLogic). User interface is also intuitive and very customizable since allows you to define your own JDK configurations and running schemes which is a vital requirement for the professional developer. One of the things I am most impressed of, is about the fact of the setup bundle is available for three different platforms: Solaris, Linux and WindowsNT/2000...in all of them it just works smoooothly :) and even you projects can be shared and imported between all of them.Yeah! it is good

Summary: Good but expires too soon
Review: This is good software, but it expires too soon to be useful to a college student. I have two weeks in the semester left, now I have to use notepad and compile in jdk 1.3 because the Enterprise trial version expired before the semester was over. Why can't companies like Borland offer free trial versions of their software that will work through the entire semester for college students? A semester is not 60 days long, it's longer. Companies could ship the software with textbooks and it would be free advertising. As soon as the student gets a good programming job and can afford the real software, they'll buy it.
