Bug 193391

The current download page is very concise, easy to use and looks great.  Some icon suggestions:
* I find the bean for Java to be confusing, because when I see the bean I think of JEE.  Consider using the package icon from the wizard set, because packages are synonymous with Java.
* JEE icon is great.
* C++ may also be confusing for anyone who has used JDT.  Perhaps ask the CDT guys for an icon or consider adding a ++ into the sphere.
* PDE icon is great.
* The Eclipse classic icon looks poor and would probably be better as the regular purple logo.  I don't think that there is any need to visually discourage people from downloading Eclipse Classic, especially since this page is (hopefully) destined to replace the default download page.  I do like the name "Eclipse Classic" though.  But it 

Other stuff:
* I also wonder if Eclipse distros should be called Third-Party Distros to make it clear why they're different than the distros above them.
* The "Get Eclipse" heading seems a bit redundant and could be removed.

Regarding the JRE warning, note that Mylyn will now show a dialog if it has been installed into an incompatible JRE (e.g. 1.4 and lower).  This was partly motivated by the EPP project in order to avoid confusion (bug 188984).
