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.
