Running our product on Vista is one of our reasons too. But more
importantly, we use Unicode compose/decompose routine that's only available
in 1.6 in our product. And because of this we can not release our latest
version of product on Mac.

Subject: RE: What is it about Java 6?
One of the simple things for us is we want to release our product on
Vista. Java on Vista runs best with Java 1.6. We don't want to have to
spit our testing between Java 1.6 on Windows, and Java 1.5 on Macintosh.
Also, I hate being held back from using new features in Java 1.6.
Depending on Apple ALWAYS means being held back from the latest Java
technology.
The point is probably moot anyway because Apple will never release Java
1.6 on OS 10.4 and our policy requires us to always support Apple's last
two operating systems.
Cheers, Eric
