It's not just Oracle though. DB2 v7.1 comes with IBM JDK 1.1.8 (WIN NT)
and without JDK on Linux. On windooze it screws up your install, however
on Linux you need to manually install IBM JDK1.1.8 since it does not run
on SUN or Blackdown. All these near 100% java Databases are sortof cool,
but it would be nice if they could at least run on the before-last
stable Sun jdk (1.2.2 for example).
