Changed lines 9-12 from:

Step 1: Install Java
Camino requires Mac OS X version 10.4.5 or later. To find your OS X version, click the apple in the top left corner of the screen and select "About This Mac". If you have this version or later, you can download Java from Apple. If you have 10.4.0-4, you need to upgrade your system. Java will be installed into /usr/bin, which is on the default path.

If you are missing any of the necessary Unix commands, you can get them via Xcode or Fink or Mac Ports.

to:

Step 1: Install XCode
Installing Xcode will give you several useful tools including Java, Subversion, Make and X11. If you have an OS X disk you can install XCode from there, otherwise get it from Apple.

Other handy Unix packages for the Mac can be obtained using Mac Ports.
