David, >> There is _tremendous_ value in getting the right kinds of applications up and running on both Macintosh and Windows. It all comes down to whether you, as a developer, develop commodities or software that is a cut above the rest. If it relies on technologies like AOCE, QuickDraw GX, AppleScript, or whatever in order to make it stand out, then by making the cross platform jump, you're screwed. I believe that most Macintosh developers are not interested in developing commodities — otherwise they would have been developing for Windows. Macintosh is about doing things better — not like everyone else. Thanks, Neil Ticktin Editor-in-Chief MacTech Magazine (formerly MacTutor)
