Additionally, rather than simple marketing to science users and science
developers, I've long thought that Apple could really gain a lot of
focus in the science market by identifying a couple of applications
that are crucial to a number of areas in science and using open source
code already out there to improve upon them with an OS X only solution
that would make the Mac (particularly an OS X Mac) a necessity. My
bias is bioscience, but I am thinking of an application something like,
say, ImageJ that a whole bunch of disciplines use. In fact, scientific
imaging is a potential strong point for Apple as they have a long
history in imaging and massive outlays in R&D in imaging as well as a
number of technologies that could be leveraged.
