that would be if the ROI would be there to develop cross platform
applications for developers.
Restricting most developers to on operating system to develop with your
product is a poor choice. Developers are another bread of users to
build applications for. Building applications for all other
marketplaces is different when it comes to the general population. The
funny thing is when you are developing application that are web based
the end user has no care on whether it comes from a Unix, Sun, Windows,
or Linux server. They are mainly concern whether the application gets
the work done. (Business perspective)
As for me I do care about whether or not an IDE has multiple builds for
other platforms other than Windows. All though this is were the bigger
share of the market is currently, will it be for the future? I mean as
developers become more skilled and wiser to the abilities of other
technologies, do you really want to restrict them to one operating
platform in order to use your product?
