Amazon opens online Macware store • The Register

The new Mac Download Store, which is divided into sections for software and what it calls in charming retro fashion "video games" – already has one major application suite that you can't find on Apple's Mac App Store: Microsoft Office for the Mac 2011.

Download store that aren't in Apple's store. Cupertino's Mac App Store
doesn't take all comers; it – in Apple's term – "curates" its wares,
which much pass a series of restrictions to be allowed aboard.
