It's just the usual HN selection bias--Mac apps appear disproportionately frequently. A cool Windows or Linux only app wouldn't get the time of day from the large Mac-using HN contingent.

Also, for whatever reason, the majority of open source Linux programs are actually cross-platform, whereas Mac developers seem to have no compunctions about only supporting a single platform.

The answers could also be correlated. If you asked why there is a selection bias among HNers with Mac usage

...because thats where all the cool apps are.
