    why do you think they develop for macintoshes?
    i say it's partly because they have an excellent operating system and mainly 
    because there are slightly few users unhappy with their macs.

Certainly many people have made this decision for immediate technical
reasons.  That is normal.

However, this does not imply that they are incapable of taking account
of other reasons to decide differently, such as to protect their
freedom.  These people are not robots.  They can change their minds.
Many people can put off short-term gratification for long-term
reasons.

Therefore, the logical thing for me to do is to call these reasons to
their attention.
