Actually, one has many more considerations that this simplistic view. While it stands to reason the above makes sense, one would need to consider ALL the factors involved ... including: 1) Hardware 2) Operating System and other environments like network communication if involved 3) Version of Java 4) Versions of other external resources like fonts and such 5) Exact version of code involved that is recreating the information 6) Is the data/code accessing external information at all (like code that requests a date from the OS)? In legal circles, one would need to consider all of these factors.
