You've got a couple of options. Java for PPC always lags a bit. Probably
the most up-to-date version of Java will be from Blackdown. Personally,
though, I liked the JDK you can get from IBM. You'll have to dig a bit
on IBM's developerWorks site to find it, but right next the the x86
version is a PPC version. (Although they label it for their servers, it
will work just find on your home machine because it's the same chip.
RS/6000 I think.)
