Hi, i will always prefer the Runnable Interface. Reason being, if u extend to Thread class, then u cannot extend any other class from ur application. So if there is a class that can provide useful functionality to u, then u cannot extend it and use its "protected" fields.Moral of the Story - Gud Designer will "ALWAYS" use Runnable interface.
