The way Mono is moving along that's not strictly speaking true. In any 
case, being "locked into" a Windows-based network is not exactly a 
liability, not now and not for a few more decades. As it is, the 
majority of fellow developers and clients that I deal with do J2SE/J2EE 
on Windows. Every job I've had there's always been a fair bit - often a 
majority - of other applications that have been on Windows. So it may be 
a point of pride that your app in theory could run on many OS's, but 
since almost everyone will have Windows who really cares?
