Again this is improper logic.  Think about web browsers.  I can write a
webpage that displays perfectly on Windows Internet Explorer and on
Macintosh's Internet Explorer, but won't display worth a crap in any other
browser because I have used all sorts of ill behaved feartures exclusive
to MS Internet Exploder.

A true test to the quality of the product is that you can write code that
works in multiple vendors Java.  Not just one vendor on multiple
platforms.  BTW: I'm not saying Sun's Java has this problem as I have only
ever used under GNU/Linux.  Just pointing out that the reasoning doesn't
play out.
