Well, it's not real possible. First there's good reason that
Mandrake made it available to Club members, and I wouldn't want to
infringe on them. Second it's proprietary, so Sun wouldn't likely
appreciate it either. Third, I've only got a 33,6 connection and the
rpm is 20 MB. Sorry, I just thought I'd make y'all aware that j2re's
installation can be quick and simple. In any event I believe my
Konqueror advice will work no matter where you get j2re.
I'd encourage you to join the Club. ;) You can almost recoup the
membership cost the first time you d/l Mandrake, or get it from
Cheapbytes, and Mandrake benefits much more than when you buy the
Power Pack. Plus you get the other benefits the Club offers.
