He doesn't really emphasise what it can do. I mean common its literally breaking down the walls of operating systems we've all been familiar with. It's amazing! I especially like the Unity feature.

It's likely that the development team that created the Java-based software you used went to great pains to make it work across multiple versions of the JRE.
Because the IA-32 and IA-64 ISAs make backwards-compatibility a priority, software developers don't have to think about whether their product will run on the latest Intel Core Duo or AMD processor. This has made x86 succeed as an application layer, both virtual and physical.

@bgetzfield: your complications don't rate a mention when it comes to the impact of Java in the data center. Example: I've just managed a project implementing a Java-based OSS for a multinational service provider. Listed as working with "any compliant J2EE container" and of the four trialled, they were right, with 1.4, 1.5, 1.6 and even JRockit. The platform choice is now one of JVM+AppServer; before it was of server+OS. That's the commercial reality today, whatever your portability issues.

I totally disagree that Java's succeeded at virtualizing the application layer. Sun has shown repeatedly that they have no interest in maintaining backwards-compatibility between Java versions, and this is crucial to making any virtualization engine succeed.
I simply can't take a Java program I wrote for Java 1.3 and have it work reliably under a later JRE. Sun makes too many changes under the hood, and does too little regression testing, for this to work correctly.

Doesn't that make the MAC slower than usual ???????? |
