I made a simple java program

class MyProg{    
  public static void main(String args[]){    
  System.out.println("Hello World");      }
}

but when I try run it this happens

wil@wil-ThinkPad-T42:~/Dropbox/java$ javac -g MyProg.java
wil@wil-ThinkPad-T42:~/Dropbox/java$ java MyProg
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: MyProg : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0

    Your Java toolchain seems to be wrong. The program looks good to me.
