I'm always confused by this line of thinking, though. Unless you're planning to buy a Mac, what difference does it make that Win Scrivener is different from Mac Scrivener? As a Windows user, your choice is between Scrivener and other applications that work on PCs.

Except that the Windows version has both a free public beta and a 30-day free trial of the release version. There's no reason for anyone to not know what they're getting before they buy.

But I've seen the rhetoric go from "We're going to get the two releases back in sync by releasing 3.0 in Mac and Windows together!" to "We didn't want to artificially hold back the release of the Mac version, but the Windows version is coming soon!" to "Well, sometime this year...." to "What difference does it make that Win Scrivener is different from Mac Scrivener?"
