Well, I've just bet several thousand dollars (the production costs for Issue 1 of The Darwin Collection - http://www.ptf.com/tdc) and a fair amount of my copious free time that they will continue to encourage Unix-oriented activity for some time to come, so I'll pass on your gracious offer (:-). The Developer Tool CD contains a variety of items, ranging from BSD and GNU tools and libraries to things like Interface Builder and Project Builder. The former will be supplied by assorted Apple followers, but the latter can only be supplied by Apple itself. Here's hoping that Apple realizes that their future market share is critically dependent on attracting a broad and deep new set of developers, including folks who simply won't pay big bucks to play with Apple's development tools. > Still, the only way to find out is to wait and see what they do.
