How can a .jar be run on Android or iOS? Android is built on some bastardized
version of JAVA but AFAIK nobody has yet produced a fully functional JAVA
Runtime Environment (JRE) for Android.
As for iOS, Apple seems to hate JAVA with as much fury as they do Flash.

Does that laptop by chance happen to have a CardBus slot? Some companies were
still equipping laptops with CardBus in 2008 instead of switching to
ExpressCard, or using both, like Lenovo.
If you have a CardBus slot, then it may be possible to use a PCMCIA soundcard
from the 90's for DOS games.
