As far as "abandoning" the Mac goes, I used to work for Apple and was their K-12 AE for my local territory. I bleed in six colors. However, the fact that I would need to buy an additional license when I am truly only running it on one computer at a time is bothersome. I'll just have to pass the costs on to my customers (which is reasonable).
Though I am "themacguy", I can see the benefits of the PC. In fact, I just built a "small-form-factor" unit which sits on the shelf and uses my Mac keyboard and trackball (via KVM).
Perhaps I'll complain less when the "special pricing" for renewals is posted.
Regards, Barry

So how is Rev "Rev killing the Mac platform"? This doesn't make sense and it's not fair. In my eyes RR seems to be a huge advocate of Mac OS. Just look at their website, their press releases, jaguar this, jaguar that.
As Geoff mentioned, you can get an additional license for Express @ $75, to do your debugging on Windows.
Personally I would rather pay an extra $75 than to move over to Windows for my main development platform. If you are that easily swayed to abandon Mac OS then maybe there are other reasons & you would do it anyways?
