Hi Cara,
Wow! Thanks for sharing. I wasn't aware the Mac and iOS community was that large either. However, I do know where you are coming from though.
The Linux community is often under rated here as well because I've gotten to know people over on the Orca List, the Speakup List, Emacspeak List, Ubuntu Accessibility List, etc and while there is a certain amount of overlap between lists the community does seem to be fairly large now. Especially, among foreign blind users that can't afford the price of Windows or Mac. Perhaps this opinion that there aren't enough Linux or Mac users around to make it worth a developer's time is simply because the people who say those things haven't spent time on lists where Mac and Linux users hang out.

Hi trouble, I know your sentiments seem correct in your assertion about the amount of Windows gamers vs potential Mac / iOS etc gamers, but let me share something. Perhaps you already know I moderate two lists for visually impaired Mac / iOS users. On only one of those lists alone there are at least three times as many members as on this one. -And, we're getting about 10 to 20 new members each week on each list… So to say that there is only a hand full of potential Mac / iOS gamers is not quite right. :) -Know what I mean?… Thanks, and have an awesome evening!… Smiles, Cara :)
