Thanks for that. Discovered that JamVM isn't an actual JRE since it relies 
on the class libraries which are available in OpenJDK. JamVM is only a JVM 
(Java Virtual Machine). From the outset JamVM *might* be able to run JavaFX 
programs since it is compatible with OpenJDK 8. IcedTea (OpenJDK 
derivative) uses JamVM as its JVM.

Originally JamVM was designed to perform well on very resource constrained 
embedded devices. Now JamVM can be used on Linux PCs (x86/AMD64).
