"Making use of" as in "some features require 1.4, but the program is usable
without them", or as in "the program cannot work at all without 1.4"?

If the features using 1.4 are optional, then you can include code to check
whether you're running 1.4, and disable the optional features if you're not.
If 1.4 is absolutely necessary, then, no, you can't run the program on OS
10.0 or 10.1 (or even early versions of 10.2).


| Is there any possibility of installing JVM 1.4 in Mac OS 10.0 and 10.1?

Not using Apple's JVM. And, as far as I know, no other JVM has been made to
work on OS X.

What are you doing that you have customers still using versions of OS X that
old? At this point, I gather that 10.2 is the oldest version still getting
widespreads support from non-Apple developers.
