Too True, Too True...and Java ain't Solaris.

This is a great solution for a single user machine.  If you happen to
like rpms, Dag's site has the 1.4.2 JRE on his site.  After installing
it and it's dependancies with apt-get, I've been able to run any Java
file, or web-page I've bumped into.  I didn't have to tweak a single
thing.  If you decide to use Sun's stuff, you'll probably have to make
the links by hand.
