Hrm? As something thinking about moving back to a Linux Desktop from  
my Mac I would need this:

Linux AMD64 Platform - J2SE(TM) Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 6

Linux AMD64 RPM in self-extracting file
jre-1_5_0_06-linux-amd64-rpm.bin
15.14 MB

Seems to be there on java.sun.com. Am I missing something?
