The JVM is a nice bubble, in which evrything runs the same on all platforms. It is a "virtual machine," standard so the programmer need not worry about how floating point values are represented on macs vs. Linux boxes*, what bytecode will do what where, etc.

*strictfp takes care of this, but without strictfp it floating point values may work differently even in java, or so I'm told.

The JVM means Java Virtual Machine, It is useful to make the file OS compatible means when you are running your code in Windows the JVM makes it Windows Compatible and when you are running your code the JVM makes it Linux compatible.
