What are the chances of snow leopard introducing
A iPhone like app store but for Mac Applications.
They could put iLife and iWork for download
Along with 3rd party software. Isn't it a good idea?
 
and be subject to apple's restrictive policies?

no thanks

how apps are distrubuted now is perfectly fine im

It would be an option to use the mac app store as a method
Of software distribution. Just an idea though, maybe it could be used soley
For apple software distribution. Targeting MacBook air users who don't always have access to a optical drive.

Not a bad idea. But your proposal got me thinking -- I want an iPhone emulator for my Macbook. I'd love to use some of my iPhone apps (Flight Control, MLB 2009) on my computer. My clicks could substitute for touch screen touches.
