You're being really pedantic when you say there was already Microsoft support for .Net on non-windows platform. It was a unsupported (no release after 2006) bare fork of the runtime that couldn't be used commercially [2]. Would you have corrected me if I stated "Internet Explorer doesn't run on Mac Os X" just because there is a version of it from 2003? Especially when you compare it to a large part of the toolchain including compiler and runtime under a MIT license that builds to multiple platforms from the same codebase [1], that's not even in the same league. [1]: https://github.com/dotnet/ [2]: From your own "This license [...] allows for personal or academic usages, but they can't be used for commercial products" |

Without kidding: I actually know Apple fanatics who use this to "point out" that Internet Explorer does run on OS X and use the argument that this version is from 2003 to show how badly Microsoft treats Apple users. :-)
