Nothing is wrong with Eclipse - just when I installed it and tried to do 
something (and at this point I don't even remember what I was doing) it kept 
asking for plugins I didn't have loaded.  I finally threw in the towel and 
uninstalled it pending locating some documetnation on what to load including 
plugins.

Got one.  Beginning Programming with Java for Dummies.  Very basic but met my 
needs.  Also I am in a BSIT program and beginning programming class next 
week.  Coupled together I should get some of this to come together.

Again, I have an IDE in windows but want to use Linux for this.
