Wow... lets dont do this please. Everyone knows statistics are skewed. Sure Apple doesnt have a large market share but what there is represents over 25 million users. If you think in those terms things look a lot different. Also dont forget that a huge amount of PC's are purchased for office use where the numbers are even further skewed. Think of all the server farms, development test beds and other places with multiple PC's, then figure that a massive percentage of sold PC's are never going to run more than MS Office on them regardless of what you advertise and the numbers once again look much different. We cant run amok witch hunting with simple statistics or overviews. After all, Hitler was a vegetarian artist and Gengis Kahn could be called "the man with the active outdoor lifestyle". ; ) Being a dual platform person myself I feel confident with my previous bottom line; if developing for Apple is good enough for Newtek, Alias Wavefront, Adobe, Macromedia, e-on, Maxon and thousands of others it's also good enough for Curious Labs. ......... or maybe not. ; )
