I try to keep Sun Java updated and see that I have both J2SE Development Kit
5.0, Update 8 and J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0, Update 8. My question is do
I need both? I don't do any programming or such, just surfing, etc.
Hope this is the right group!

if you aren't developing java applets or applications then you don't
need the development kit, just the runtime environment, and then only
if you actually need to visit sites that require java...
