1 - Goal of portable programming The goal is explicitly named: portability.  That mean usability of your code on multiple hardware and operating systems.  Mainly the OS are MS Win / MAC Os / Unices with some entends to VMS / BeOS / etc.  Hardware are mainly PCs and MACs but also includes others running unices, vax, dec, etc.

Your software is running on about everything mean that about everyone could run it, give you feedback, improve it.
