Well, actually, it's already happening. The new release of RealSlideshow is available on a Mac platform. Here's a point I need to make regarding all the banter over "my product is better than your product" postings. Just for grins, let's say RNWK has 85% share, ok, MSFT has 10%, and Apple has 5%. Now, these guys are all in the consumer biz, right? If they want to reach the masses, are they going to fight over who's better, or are they going to adopt the most accessible platform for THEIR consumers? Remember, Apple and MicroSoft want to make the customer happy, they don't want confusion.......it's not about competition, it's about working together to make your product customer-friendly, the customer decides who wins, not the company....does this make sense?
