It's good isn't it? You don't have pointers in the C programming sense, the Virtual Machine looks after all that. However, that's not to say you don'f have have similar capabilities. For example, variables for objects are references, when you pass a variable for an object you are passing a reference which is sort of a pointer. You might also use a variable to store the index of an item in an array, that again is a kind of pointer in a programmatical sense.
