I'm developing my applications on a Mac, from the viewpoint of a Mac user. But competition in the software industry is difficult enough, even when you target 99% of the market. It is even more difficult to earn a living when only 2% of the market is targeted. I am unwilling to compromise the performance of my applications. Thus they are native Mac executables. But unfortunately, I cannot commit professional suicide by locking my application into Mac. I know, I know.. Separate the GUI code from the logic (it is, btw) and write two GUIs... But hey... Guess what? That takes significantly more development and testing resources. Resources I don't have.
