On the same machine?

They are two different machines.

They are two different machines.

Might not be the JRE that is the problem. Different machines may use
different precisions. If you want predictable results, use strictfp
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strictfp).

Actually it is 1.5.0_2 -> 1.5.0_6 and the _02 to _06 is only bugfixes,
so unless a bug fixed effects your code, then I would look elsewhere
for the difference.

Actually it is 1.5.0_2 -> 1.5.0_6 and the _02 to _06 is only bugfixes,

And for details of the bugfixes see

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/ReleaseNotes.html

but like Arne, I suspect your problem lies elsewhere.
