static @ main is design for the VM to search the main method who activates the the components etc... to be executed first...

it must be public @ main so that the invoker java.exe could execute the main method...

whenever there is a public class but the methods inside is private, you cannot access them...And so as the VM....

if you are not satisfied, ask Sun MicroSystems Java Head Developer...

If im wrong, please correct me!!!

I'm fairly certain the main() method is static because it doesn't belong to any particular object. It would be impossible to run if you needed to create an object first, then run the main method, because where would you create the object?
