Could it be that what you mean by  'Cross platform' is that the client is
always a Windoze PC.

This isn't Cross Platform, its the Microsoft Monopoly.

True Cross Platform means that the software can run on any system. Does this
really exist, or is it still an academic aim. Java is close to cross
platform, although developers often add OS specific features. Some platforms
are not compatible with all the Java functions (eg. iSeries and Swing or
AWT).

The iSeries can perform just as well as any other type of server in the
'Cross Platform' environment.
