MS has confirmed all development for MAC platform has stopped. Company spokesperson pointed out that the market share for MAC is no longer viable, and that resources would better be spent porting the products to Linux platform. "The numbers don't lie, Linux's market share is 4 times Macs, and with the deal with Novell, we need to strike while the iron is Hot".
This change has affected the stock price in after hours trading, MS being up by $3.00 a share, with experts like Jim Cramer predicting a 50% surge in stock value because of the expanded market base for new revenue.
