Does anyone else agree that PC and Unix IDL users *also* benefit from the
fact that IDL reaches to the Mac platform? To my mind, knowing that code I
develop on PC can (in general) run on Mac as well adds value to my work, and
I'd think it reasonable to consider some of PC and Unix licence/maintenance
fees as going to support Mac development.

Cheers,
