Mac OS X - front and center on Microsoft Download Center
Posted by admin, Thu Mar 09 02:30:21 UTC 2006
I was just a little surprised when I hit this page on the Microsoft Download Center. Check out the order in which the “Supported Operating Systems” are listed.
Somehow, I doubt that Microsoft intended to give Mac OS X top billing, but they did :-)

Given the number of times I’ve hit the download center to see stuff, only to be turned back by the fact that MOV files, WMA files and simple Powerpoint files are packaged up as Windows executables for download… I have to say I like this page. Now, just keep up this trend Microsoft!
