Mac OS X and Java

Mac OS X provides a highly-optimized, tightly integrated implementation of Java 2 Standard Edition 1.3.1, including the client version of the HotSpot virtual machine. As the only high-volume desktop operating system to ship with Java 2, Mac OS X is emerging as the best place to develop and deploy Java applications. One the greatest benefits of developing or deploying Java on Mac OS X is that Java automatically takes advantage of multiprocessor G4s without developers having to do any additional work.
