The primary reason for this in my experience has been the poor support

IBM's Java release has excellent Linux support. For example, IBM includes
the Java Communications API (comm.jar) from Sun in their JRE and JDK. Sun does
not support Linux yet.
It really is no longer true to say that support for Java on Linux is poor. IBM
has based a large part part of their business on Linux.
