Javasoft have not decide yet whether it is lawful to distribute Windows
L&F on non-windows environment. To stay on safe side they embedded the
function 

public boolean isSupportedLookAndFeel()

into all LookAndFeels. For WindowsLookAndFeel it looks like:

    public boolean isSupportedLookAndFeel() {
        return isNativeLookAndFeel();
    }

I am far from knowledge whether it is lawful for you to change it to
'return true' and to try how it looks.

All the Best
