Besides the point. The product isn't marketed for noncommercial use, and part of the way the entire site is built makes you think "oh man, this is going to cost me down the line," even if it's free now.
Plus even look at how buried the product is. Its been subjugated to secondary brand status, plus clip art. All you need are a set of white papers and it is full-on enterprise sell mode.
If you make social software you have to sell the software and market the software in a friendly, social way. Not in an enterprise-y way. The entire promise of Hamachi was the potential for social computing to rise beyond the authoritarian domain of IT administrators. Yet to position and build a site that only appeals to IT administrators -- there's the rub.
But yes, secondarily, no mac client = non starter for me.
