hi jessica,
thanks for the quick reply.
There are JVM's for Windows, Linux, Mac, HP-UX, etc. So if your TV has a little operating system -- you can install a JVM and tada -- run Java. Granted... most TV's haven't come to the point of having an OS.
so if the program is developed and then let's say is going to be executed on Linux, do we need to attach the JVM with the program for Linux or the target machine has JVM already? i hope i have been able to make myself clear to you?
thanks.

Hi All,
I am new to Java world. I was reading this site [URL=http:////java.sun.com/java2/whatis/] and found that

The idea is simple: Java technology-based software can work just about everywhere. Java technology components don't care what kind of computer, phone, TV, or operating system they run on. They just work, on any kind of compatible device that supports the Java platform.

So The questions are:
1. I am not sure how can any device be able to support Java Platform?
2. can't a device any other programig platform like it does Java Platform?
I can't get my head around above statements. It would be a great help if someone could explain me in a layman terms.
thanks.
