1. here is your answer
Edited on Mon Jul-28-08 04:41 PM by jasonc
from the java website:

"Mac OS X is the only major consumer operating system that comes complete with a fully configured and ready-to-use Java runtime and development environment. Professional Java developers are increasingly turning to the feature-rich Mac OS X as the operating system of choice for both Mac-based and cross-platform Java development projects. Mac OS X includes the full version of J2SE 1.5, pre-installed with the Java Development Kit (JDK) and the HotSpot virtual machine (VM), so you don't have to download, install, or configure anything."

7. What happens when you go to that page in safari?

8. I find Camino works better than Firefox on my Mac, too
When I had a windows system, Firefox worked very well.
