Good question, Brad. I only quoted the brochure, especially since I have no working knowledge of Java (is it a language? a platform? ??? I wasn't even sure that Linux "supported" Java). Since I'm using Win95 and they blessed that OS explicitly, I haven't bothered asking them about it. Jon or his client will have to check that part out.

Are there different versions of JVMs on different OS's? If M$ has their own, does this mean it only works on M$? Or is it a "vague" way to say "It may work, it may not. Try it out."?
