But that is not really fair is it. Apple is not supposed to have good Windows software to do Microsoft a favor. They should have good Windows software to do themselves a favor. Because people will be more likely to use their devices. And if the Windows software is excellent, Windows users will consider an Apple for their next computer.
Now a Windows user hears about all the hoopla about how great Apple interfaces are, looks at iTunes and says "that cannot be true".
- sophacles 15y agoMy point was more that a company that makes an operating system probably puts it's best devs on the software for that OS. Further, there is probably not a lot of institutional knowledge of the other supported os. Lastly, there is probably some difficulty in getting good applicants with ".Net guys, come work at Apple", or "Objective-C dev? MS is hiring!". It reads like "come work for the enemy".
