I'm actually not so much thinking about existing users, more about brand new users.

They'll ask a question about how to do something, and the answer will be - "use this plugin" or "use this script", and then they won't be able to do that.

For example they'll go to the Rhino labs page and see all the different plugins that are supposed to help them do various things, but they won't be able to use any of them...

I think most of the OSX users would consider OSX itself to be the main benefit!


But the overall main reason to do a port is to attract more brand new users who are not already using the existing software since it does not run on their operating system, rather than for existing users.
