That's still pretty much cross-platform for all practical purposes, as it supports far more platforms than most softwares anyway. After all cross-platform only means that it runs on multiple platforms, not on all possible or even technically feasible platforms. Being cross-platform usually means a much easier porting but that porting still has to be done somehow.

In fairness this ignores a lot of embedded work.

Java gets to cheat here a bit because they have some custom embedded stuff, but they are also not actually running on all CPUs.

Embedded stuffs require much more than mere cross-platform anyway ;-)
