PC's are cheaper, so there's more of them. That makes them the prime market. You need to have a market to put out a product, and if it's a very limited market, it's hard to justify producing it. IMO, money is the reason, and it's justified because running a business is about money, not about loosing money to an obscure market. >Are all the programmers just going to code for win,palm and pocketpc ? I think programmers pretty much write code and you can't single them out as being the reason you might not be seeing many comercial Chess programs for Mac computers. Shareware and freeware are a different story, and I'm sure there'll always be enthusiasts creating Mac Chess software. Pete
