Yes, but - do you really need these applications...? I the outside world you cannot always avoid to meet it in devices and techncial gadgets, but on PC with Windows there is no excuse to program stuff in Java.
Steed, do you run Open Office? I seem to recall that the installation of Java is mandatory for using some of its more exotic features, and that it is offered to install Java when installing OpenOffice. There you could have caught it. I used Open Office for a while, but abandoned it again. I had not installed Java, and missed nothing from that.
