[TML] ObRPG: Quotes from a Gygax obit

[Tom B]

I think Pentiums can be Macs now too, can't they, with Leopard or OS X
or something?

At any rate, all the artsy-fartsy computer types use Macs (well, most
of them). So you can sort of understand that. Few programmers who
aren't writing video/image/art software write for Macs, so most write
for Windoze (although this is slowly changing to include *NIX). Mac
used to be an ironclad SOB to program for (why the apps just worked!)
and no one enjoyed developing for them. It's probably easier now with
the *NIX like flavour they've taken on. But it is still a small market
segment.
