BTW - if your needs include Oracle, you may want to look at RHEL or (the
free rhel clone) CentOS. Fedora can be used in a production environment
but it is too bleeding edge for most serious production environment uses
and it reaches EOL rather quickly.

I think RHEL comes with a complete Java environment from IBM (don't
quote me on that though).
