But what does Java entail in this case? In its purest form, Java is a
programming language which may be compiled for your processor of choice. In
this case, it will run on most everything. Then there is Java bytecode, which
is compiled for an imaginary Java processor which is emulated on your host
system. Then we have the entire application kit used for writing applets, with
libraries and lots of functions, compiled into bytecode and rendered into a
web browser window. This is where it gets troublesome not only for the
processor, but also due to lack of the entire set of libraries required.
