Yes, it is a real conundrum. It is ironic when you consider that a
product built by supporters of open source software are actually giving
greater support for an OS that is not open source.

I guess when you filter in the very real possibility that many users of
Win32 are children, or users who do not wish to learn the intricacies of
running a *nix OS, and in all probability would never be able to hurdle
the obstacles that abound in such use, the fact that non Win32 OS's are
not better supported is not surprising.

Just my 2¢.
