not really, you could say the same thing about Windows and Linux lacking Xcode (an excellent free app and game maker bundled with OS X that runs much better than MMF but with a similar WYSIWYG approach).
you could also say it blows that Windows NEEDS 3rd party security apps just to stay normal. no OS has everything. im running linux (Mandrake), OSX and Windows and i think i can safely say that.
what is good though is that Virtual PC emulates Windows very well so you dont loose out on the 2D. there are other free ones but im unsure about them, he might want to pay a visit to google.
also... from what I hear. MMF2 is all about different platforms. I emailed Jeff a while back and he said an OSX exporter isn't impossible, same for the GP32 thing from a while ago. maybe even an OSX version of MMF2 - though he also said a mac coder would cost more than its worth.
i like to keep my ear to the ground
