Well, the sincerest form of flattery is....

Judging from the screen shots, that interface IS 100% "pretty and
wonderful Mac OS look", down to every detail. I know; I look at the
original for hours every day.  How nice that they like it, too...

The obvious question: Since these software creators admire Mac OS so
much, why not a Mac version?  The software as such looks quite
interesting, but having to use a Win box for it.....   The mind
boggles...



The 'look' of software is a serious selection crieria for many users
though, and the current crop of mac os's seems to have caught more than a
few eyes.

sad isn't it though, that it's only available to Windows users.


OS2,Beos,linux,SkyOS,Solaris,TheOS,IBMPC,openBSD,Aros all miss out too even
though they too run on PC's.

Windows, Linux and Mac seem the only places where there's a real abundance
of software (in diminishing order).  If there was more around for, say,
MenuetOS  (LOVE that OS!) I'd be there in a shot and leave windows well
behind me!

still, with macs soon to be running on PC hardware, who knows - maybe a
small port and the mac users will have the benefit of access to the mind
boggling, confusing plethora of windows-bound
software/freeware/shareware/spamware/postcardware/
software/malware/beerware/abandonware/
crippleware/daggerware/scribeware/
cancerware/paypalware/coverware/ etc etc etc..
