Joseph.........Has it exactly right....
Linux,,,,,Windows,,,,and Solaris are all SUN JVM's
HP-UX .........MAC..........etc...are not SUN's they have their own
implementation
Hence...somethings are different

Joseph,
I have no idea what you mean. We decided one day to try our Java app
(developed on Windows) on a Linux box. It just worked. Period. As in not
one single stitch of tuning, tweaking, or debugging. Both the GUI (Swing)
and server-side pieces.
And another guy here had the same experience when he ran it on Solaris.
Sounds like pretty close to WORA to me.
