Description ulfzibis 2011-02-28 00:58:03 UTC 
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.23 ]

Currently different Netbeans installations are located according following
schema:
C:\Program Files\NetBeans xxx\
This is ugly, as plenty of Netbeans versions flood the Windows Program Files
folder.
I suggest one of the following schemas:
C:\Program Files\Oracle\NetBeans xxx\
C:\Program Files\NetBeans\xxx\
C:\Program Files\NetBeans\ IDE xxx\
The latter leaves room for other NetBeans products than IDE.
