Hi there,

true enough - people hang on to their Macs for quite a while.

Anyway, this is what I could find in the Java Release notes in the Mac 
Developer 
Center about Java 6:

"Java SE 6 support is available on 64-bit, Intel-based Macs only."
(http://developer.apple.com/releasenotes/Java/JavaLeopardUpdate4RN/Introduction/Introduction.html)


Cheers,
Jan
