Mac-centric or mac-friendly?

[Charles Silverman]

Could it be that Rev is simply Mac-friendly and Mac-equal rather than 
Mac-centric... Mac-friendly is a good thing.  Otherwise, I wouldn't be 
using Rev.

There are still a lot of Mac things which aren't available in Rev.... 
The new "font" dialog box that is standard in OS X for one. Macs do 
well in education and digital media so that 96% figure regarding the 
rest of the market place may be a trifle high.

Would there be as many complaints about Quicktime if it weren't an 
"Apple" product?  Quicktime is supposed to be almost caught up to 
Windows Media Player, with Real trailing behind, so it's hard to see 
that it's that much of a problem to install Quicktime. I recall that 
Apple offers the Quicktime installer license for free. To quote:

One of my main reasons for using Rev is its Quicktime support.  I hope 
it gets better.

The Mac-friendly approach of the Rev team is much appreciated.
