   Well, for serious Java development it’s much better to just download the Unix tar ball from Sun.
   That way you can fine control which version of JDK you need without apt-reconfigure your JDK.

   I prefer downloading the .bin from sun website too, but this is for average users who want the fastest way to install Java SDK, btw i like the Java 2 better than the Java 5.
