For more precision, I would write "Java is designed to work across multiple software platforms, meaning that, for example, a program written on Mac OS X could also run on Windows. I think that makes it more clear that Windows is just as much part of the "example" as Mac OS X.

Java is a cross-platform development environment. You write a program in Java and run it on various operating systems, on which the Java machine has already been installed.
