JDK on Windows x64

General Discussion
1

I've just reinstalled my computer, and I've put Windows 7 x64 on it. Much better than Xp/Vista :smiley: I downloaded Eclipse x64 and set about trying to find the latest JDK for Windows x64, which used to be quite easy on Sun's old site, but since Oracle have taken over, I can't seem to find it. Am I being really dim, or can no one else find it either?  :expressionless:

Never mind, I managed to work it out. Their website is really poor; here’s the link if anyone is interested. Just choose Windows x64 under platform.

Doesn't googling jdk6 bring you to the download page?  That's usually the first thing I do when I set up a new Windows box

It does, but it doesn't make it very clear once you're there. There are numerous download pages, and various lists of packages, and it's all a bit of a mess at the moment.
