Of course it's java oriented. On suns site you can download the Windows
AMD64 version of the JDK. I wonder if it runs on an Pentium. Sorry for
being unclear? Btw, what is "NTG"?

My understanding is that whereas Itanium used their own 64 bit
instruction set, the Pentium implements the AMD64 instruction set (and so
the P4-64 and AMD64 are compatible, thank goodness). So the answer is
"probably yes".
