Yes, really!
Most of them are only pc compatible.
Same thing with most cheap webcams, cheap printers, cheap beatboxes, cheap ...
Companies don't make cheap things for a very expensive architecture.
A (rich) friend of me has mac, but also just bought a pc to run all those things.
Mac has a very big compatibility problem.
It's just to limited!
Also, do you actually claim, OSX is a better(or even just as good) platform for programmers?!
(unless you're a graphical designer)
PS: Bashing any OS is always easy.
A perfect OS simply doesn't exist.
Just accept the fact that different people have different needs. ;)

They CLAIM they are only PC compatible, but it's not like most of them claim to be Linux compatible, either.

That's a ridiculous argument. There is plenty of cheap hardware that is Mac only. All companies need to do is write the drivers and use USB. There are even open source drivers for OS X.

Yes. At least just as good.

I didn't claim that. For people who use command line there is little point in using OS X.

Did I mention Linux?
I was only talking about PC and Mac.
But still, I've never seen somting that I couldn't connect with Linux (This is mostly a legal matter, if it runs on PC, it will run on linux).

We must have a different opinion about 'cheap'!

You did claim all people would change to OSX once they've seen it. I don't see the difference.
PS: Sorry about the many late editing I just did.

There is a version of the emulator for Windows and Linux. This is the first release of the emulator, it will only get better over time.
