Same here - they'd have my $$ as well if they could guarantee the license would transfer over. Issue is pretty simple - and it was either Jeff or Sebastian who stated it pretty clearly - since at the moment NO MAC VERSION has yet been developed, there's nothing to test - no beta - nothing - it flat doesn't yet exist. And as such - there's no way they can even test on the pre-beta dev end whether or not the Windows license key would indeed transfer over. They said pretty much exactly that - and as such, since they have no idea at this point if it (the license key transfer) will even work - they're not guaranteeing anything. They can't.
Hat's off to them tho for being VERY upfront about it and letting us know straight away what the situation is. I shudder to think how many companies would essentially blow smoke at us just go get us to pre-order and take our money - only later on, if things didn't work as planned, saying "oh - sorry - guess it didn't worked. oh well... ) BIG credit to Jeff/Sebastian and the OOTP folks for playing it straight and being open and upfront. Believe me, they've earned a customer in me just from that simple demonstration of EXCELLENT -- and honest -- business practice!
