I don't know at what level the plaf modules start using native windowing services, but there's the possibility that the reason that you get an unsuppported look-and-feel exception is that the low-level native windowing services are simply not available because they are part of Windows, and you're not running Windows. I can say, however, that while Linux users might be more tolerant, if you were ever to force the MS-WINDOWS look-and-feel on MACINTOSH users, they'd be coming after you with the ropes and knives and sharpened farm implements!
Tim is right. The services just aren't there. Also I read somewhere that it was actually a copywrite infringement for the Windows Look and Feel to be ported to other platforms. So MS would be coming after you with knives and pitchforks, etc.
