I wanted to learn Java and so went to http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp. I was about to download "NetBeans IDE + JDK 5.0" when I noticed that they also have "JDK 5.0 Release Candidate for Windows AMD64" at the end of the page. Is it better to DL this RC for AMD64 and then later separately install NetBeans or it doesn't really matter if I just go ahead and install the generic (for all processors) SDK that comes along w/ NetBeans?
