I assume you're referring to MRJ 1.5 (which implements Java 1.0.2)
Netscape doesn't support Apple's JManager technology so it doesn't use MRJ at all. MRJ 2.0 is useful because it supports Java 1.1.x, which a lot of programs require now, and is much faster. If you use a lot of Java applets on your Mac I would suggest you get Internet Explorer as it is a much, much better Java host environment. It comes with its own Java virtual machine (MSIE/MW) and will also let you run MRJ inside it.
