I've been lead to believe that Sage is java based, so that might be your
best bet. GnuCash may also be an option - I've not used it personally so
I really can't say which to go for.
With regards to Sage, I'd obviously suggest that you try to get a
demo/trial version if at all possible as there's not much point in
shelling out for something if you're not sure if it'll work properly.
