Even though I insist on SMP/E installs wherever possible, this is my exception 
to 
the rule.  I haven't used SMP/E for a Java install since the first few times I 
installed
it.  I don't even remember the level back then.  Maybe 1.4, but could be prior. 
 
I know for sure I wasn't using SMP/E at later levels of 1.4.     It's just 
extra work
and space for managing a PTF that replaces the entire product /  unix file
system contents with each apply.   I don't need SMP/E to keep track of that 
for me.   

I guess I'm not a real sysprog.  :-)
