[Advanced-java] Hardware/OS

[Mohnish Chaudhary]

Hi Finn,

In case of interpreted languages that run on a virtual machine e.g.
Java, the language need not change. The only change required is the
virtual machine for the specific hardware and OS.

So, if we have a Java program that's running on Windows on the Intel
x86 platform and we change the hardware to AMD 64 bit and OS to Linux,
no need to change the program or language. Just use the virtual
machine for the Linux AMD 64 bit platform.

Regards,
Mohnish
