Um, no, SharePoint is not hard to access from non-Windows machines, e.g.
Mac, Linux, *BSD.
I have found one little-used service (embedded modifiable tables) on
SharePoint that doesn't work from non-Windows, but pretty much everything
else works. You can access (open and edit) Word, Excel and Powerpoint
files hosted on a SharePoint volume from a Mac without the file
downloading to the Desktop. You can even administer SharePoint from a Mac.
