I was thinking about DESKTOP APPS, those that run with java -jar appname.jar.

OpenJDK, the gpl version of java, does not include the "browser
plug-in". That is what you use when you need _applets_ to run.
And that is handled via "icedtea". that is an open source "browser
plug-in" component developed by a separate team of devs, and a known
source of problems.

OpenJDK, the Java VM, imho runs quite well, for _desktop_ apps. I
rarely notice any difference between OpenJDK 7 and the propietary Java
VM (JRE) that you download from Java.com on Windows machines.

Also, there is always the option of installing the "freeware"
Sun/Oracle JRE from Java.com...
