Not necessarily. They could embrace the open-source movement and that
thing called The Internet a bit more... Offer OS X unsupported, without
the bs to make it "only run on a Mac". Work with the
developer/hacker/user community for a year or two, to build a base of
ad-hoc supported systems. Then, as the market-share begins to explode,
jump in with both feet.
