In an ideal world, everyones favorite platform is supported, sadly the more builds/fork the more problems and resources required. Obviously, if CS main goal was multi-platform then it would be in java :D Thankfully, it's not! I like keeping a clean/minimalist VM (VirtualBox) and it simple and works very well! I think most non window users expect specialised software to be mostly on windows. http://virtualbox.org/ (free for personal use or a license is $50USD) Being mostly a Linux user, I have no problem with CS being bear bones win32/MFC/VC++. Unless Microsoft is changing the rules (ie app store?) then I don't get the business case for multi-platform support. Just my thoughts.
