Java Color creation throws IllegalArgumentException when used with integer arguments

Question

The following code when executed on certain machines in our company causes an `IllegalArgumentException` to be thrown: ``` Color sludge = new Color(133, 133, 78); //throws IAE with message "Color parameter outside of expected range: Red Green Blue" ``` An equivalent call using `float` arguments instead works: ``` Color sludge = new Color(0.522, 0.522, 0.306); // 133/255 = 0.522, 78/255 = 0.306 ``` Why might this be the case? And why would it only affect certain machines? Might it have something to do with the fact that these `Color` objects are defined in Spring like this: ```
