JDK Update

Great, so I FINALLY finish a 30MB download of what I thought was the JDK7 download.
Ho, Ho, Ho, I was foolish to believe that a download on the JDK7 DOWNLOAD PAGE, would actually *gasp* be the JDK!

Turns out I downloaded a JRE that requires the JRE to run. Funny, isn't it; you might think that for a second Sun would try to attain some aspect of ease of use.

This is starting to turn out to be more hassle than what I believe it's worth, Java applications don't have a history of being able to use Windows themes; preferring to use their own dull grey theme to stand out and uglify the OS.

Would you like a cup of Java with your NetBeans?

The Netbeans 5.5 CD I ordered a few weeks ago has now arrived.

Shame it doesn't include the JDK alone with it; All the differing versions of Java are somewhat confusing.
Should I download JDK6 which seems to be the stable version with development having ceased.
JDK7 which appears to be the new version.
Or OpenJDK which doesn't seem to actually be a JDK but rather just javac and the Java Virtual Machine.

I ended up deciding to go with JDK7, shall update after the download (30MB .jar file).
