I was wondering how robust is this way of doing it by copying the JRE with
the application. I am sure many of you have had the problem with more than
one JDK installed on a single Windows machine that it complains about some
registry entries not having the exact version number they needed (in my case
1.3 or 1.2).
Are we free from that by just shipping JRE?
I know I could just try it and see but better rely on already established
experience...
