Can you name a single example of that? Probably not, because even
Windows itself runs just fine on e.g. Macs. Not so for OS X - well,
not easily anyway.
Silverlight is still fairly new, but it works on all platforms. It's
specious to claim that someday in the future "when it becomes popular"
they'll throw some switch and make it only work in Windows.

Actually, Silverlight is supposed to be an alternative to Adobe's

monopolies and all in favor of alternatives?
Are you naive or just making believe you are naive?
We've all seen how MS does things like lure the public in with an
"alternative" to something and then alters it so that it only works for
Windows users.
