Support for latest Java added to Leopard

Leopard Last fall, word first surfaced that Leopard was unable to stomach Java 1.6 (AKA Java 6.)

The problem existed in the Java Virtual Machine used to rune the code. Sun offerst to build the virtual machine for some operating systems, but Apple is among the companies that choose to develop the component in-house rather than use a Sun build.

This wasn't a very big deal to most users, but for developers that for one reason or another needed to write code in Java 6, it was a major headache. Some developers even said they would have to revert back to Tiger because of the issue.

Well, now everyone can go Leopard. Apple has issued an update which adds support for the new Java.
