I think the point of Sun/Oracle making their own JVM/JDK for a given OS is to keep or gain developers.
So the question is: if you couldn't develop Java on a Mac, how many developers would they lose? Would current Mac-based Java developers change machines or change languages? I think most, like Fabrizio, would dump the Mac. But some of us went the other way. I don't see it as a matter of responsibility. Like most things, I think it's a question of rational self-interest. Apple has apparently decided that Java isn't worth its time or money anymore. Oracle may or may not feel the same about the Mac.
