I always thought that you _don't_ need the classpath. If you have your
PATH variable correctly (for the release you want to use, e.g.
/usr/local/jdk1.2/bin) then you don't need to worry about anything else.
The only reason you would want your CLASSPATH set, is if you have other
Java libraries you want your compiler/java/appletviewer to see.
If you want to remove a release of the JDK just remove the folder and
its contents.
