I don't know the game's history, but if it was a hit only to Apple users then,
compare it to its status now, that it is so wide spread. If you were an author
and you had a book that while greatly loved by a prison population could not
be had by those not in that prison, would you be satisfied with the acclaim
of the inmates?

Why stop at the PC exclusivity? There are still plenty of books published
that are exclusively available on paper. The concern is when someone is
attempting to obtain a monopolistic position and control the distribution of
the product. It usually ends up with a poor outcome for all involved, in the
long run.
