"other than the fact they just pissed off a lot of people who beleive strongly in OSS"

If they believe so strongly in OSS, they wouldn't use macintosh would they? Nope they don't want to pony up and take out their wallets.



If you want to develop for iOS you have to use a Mac.


Technically not true. If you want to publish for iOS you have to use a Mac, and there's an exception to that (PhoneGap Build).


no, you don't. You can use a VM


You can’t legally run OS X under VM, unless the host is OS X on Apple’s hardware as well (and I think even that is only for server edition).


Do note that those laws don't apply to the entire world.
