Startups are missing Mac business

Business 2.0 's Om Malik has written a
great article about why startups should develop their products for Macs first. Typically a start up wants to get the most bang for their developer buck, and so they target the 90% of the market that use Windows. It is hard to argue with, unless you know a thing or two about Mac users, as Om does.

We Mac Users are an influential lot, loads  of A list bloggers use Macs, and tons of technology journalists are card carrying members of the Mac Faithful. If there is a piece of software we like, we let people know (Om points out
Delicious Library, I would point to
Quicksilver).

Bottom line, startups, if you want  your product to make a splash make it good and make it for the Mac.
