New Laptop advice

Hello,I just recently purchased a new laptop, and was wondering which program would be the best to download so that I can write Java programs on my laptop. I have taken AP Computer sciences so I am already semi-familiar with the Java language. That you for your help.Eric

Eric,

I suggest download the jdk 1.5 and with that you either download jcreator

from http://www.jcreator.com/ or Textpad http://www.textpad.com/

both of these editors integrate with the jdk and you can compile and run

java programs from the editors.

Try these out, they work nicely on laptops as well.

Cheers

Daniel

Exchange your laptop for a Mac... they come with the JDK already configured and installed. ;)
