Er, actually it is - the Java spec is very fast and loose on some core 
concepts regarding the APIs and the libraries - for example, threading and 
thread scheduling is different on each system. There's no nailing down of 
Z-Ordering of components for AWT (Netscape does it the reverse of everything 
else in the known universe in their JVM). And so on and so on.
