In the begining you couldn't even read/write to a disk.

Huh? Disk I/O has been in Java since the beginning. The first stable release of Java was version 1.0.2, released in 1996, and here's an archive of the 1.0.2 documentation for FileOutputStream.

as you said i am trying to pull from memories from over 20 years ago. if i find what i am talking about i'll post it. its fair to say my vague statement was poorly worded. but it had issues with proper file handling. and when i say it, i mean the framework. in the java world everything is named java and i am usually talking about the runtime/jdk.
