Is it possible to install the latest JDK on Mac OS 10.5? What are the best options, considering that the Apple-supplied version is 1.5?
Update: I am trying to install JDeveloper 11, which requires JDK 6.

If you have an Intel Mac with a Core 2 Duo, go to Applications/Java and run Java Preferences.app
You’ll be able to select ‘Java SE 6’ as your default java version (version 5 is still the shipping default on the OS for compatibility, I guess).
