That's the price of running on the minority platform--the stuff that's free and widely available on Windows is $20 shareware on the Mac. This has changed quite a bit with Apple having switched to a Unix-based OS, but yet examples like Acquisition show that there's money to be made copying Windows freeware concepts and selling them as crippleware on the Mac.
