Now let's do all the other PaaS vendors. Steam, Battle.net, Origin, Adobe CC, SmithMicro... I'm sure I'm missing plenty more.

Steam and Adobe, yes., but most Mac users could not care less for Battle.net, Origin, or SmithMicro.

In fact, Battle.net, Origin, or SmithMicro would care more for Mac to do a rewrite than Apple would care to lose them.

Besides, Apple changed to Intel and didn't give much of a care about MS or Adobe apps having to be rewritten.

They would eventually need to do the same dance on Android, ChromeOS and Windows.
