What I'm getting at is, why isn't that automated?

When I go to the shock download page, I click on the "shock installer" and
it gets installed.. and it works, I don't have to do anything else.

When I get the JRE from SUN I have to download it, find the "instructions",
read the instructions, understand the instructions, set up a symlink in some
obscure directory etc...

I mean I guess it's fun... but I don't understand why it's such a manual
process.
