Much of the development of VisAD is done on Solaris, so
it works best there.  There doesn't appear to be a Java3D
implementation available for Tru64, so only the 2D portion
of VisAD would be functional.  The other platforms will
work, but because VisAD is a great testbed for uncovering
Java3D bugs, there may be problems.

I don't know anything about running VisAD as an applet,
so I'll defer to others on this.
