I'm by no means an expert on Swing. But I believe that look and feel may 
include OS-dependent resource names that make them sensitive to OS user 
settings for colors, fonts and even sounds. They may also differ a 
little between OS updates. So you'd have to be really sure you're 
running the very "same OS" on both those machines.
