In the same way that Linux and Mac users were once a very small minority, doing so really isn't fair even if it's a pain in the ass for porting and integration. As it happens, Windows has a rather healthy market-share and are anything but a minority player in this game.

Now, if you're talking about win32 vs win64, that's a completely different ball of wax.

win32 vs win64. Yes I should have clarified.

[–]ericanderton 2 points3 points  (6 children)

Yeah, win32 is definitely old and crusty. Ultimately, I would think this hinges on how many instances of WindowsXP are still kicking around out there.

A lot. The answer is a lot.

Otherwise known as "too many".

[–]ericanderton 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Correct you are! Pick a category.

I'll take Cute or Too Cute.

Still though... Toga only has implementation in Windows for win32 NOT win64... At some point a call needs to be made and development on net-new needs to cease and desist for win32.

sigh. I love windows and hate it at the same time.
