Why do Windows Vista apps still lag behind OSX?

Is it a difference in audience or a difference in OS?

I posted a question for the community in the following thread: https://forums.stardock.com/?aid=173545 (Windows Vista forum)

Why don't sleek productivity apps exist for Windows Vista?

So what gives? Is there just less interest after all?  (Hard to believe.)  Is Windows just harder to program for?  Do Windows apps just try to do too much, and therefore not see the forest for the trees? Are marketing and competition different when dealing with Windows?  Are GTD and productivity needs (such as Scrivener) still an under-the-radar thing that only appeals to the same crowd who end up preferring Macs anyway, and thus the creative people who write this software only write it for that platform?


I'm genuinely interested in finding out the reasons behind this conundrum.

Looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts.

Hmm... Would've thought this topic would take off! Strange silence...
