Make me a third. About a million iMacs have been sold in less than
a year, and although the Mac market share is only around 10% right
now (that's a huge number of Macs, by the way!), the fraction
of all personal computers *in use* that are Macs is actually about 20%.
It is simply way off the mark to believe that Macs are not very common
nowadays. I spend most of my time at a Unix box, and work on all
three major platforms regularly (Unix, Mac, Win32), so please don't
dismiss this as just another Mac-only user mouthing off. It's a great
platform, and I simply wouldn't want to see python GUI development
ignoring it.
