When creating MediaShout 7, we decided to make stability our top priority. To handle all possible configurations is very difficult. That makes the development of high-end software more difficult for Windows not because of the software or OS, but because of the end-users’ ability to have such a wide range of possible hardware combinations. In fact, there is mathematical proof that increasing the number of features linearly will increase the potential for instability exponentially.Īdditionally, while programs built on the Apple ecosystem ( MacOS, iOS, etc.) have a finite number of OS and hardware combinations ( which Apple does on purpose), Windows and Android OS can exist on an almost infinite number of hardware and operating system combinations, with no real confirmation of whether a certain hardware combination will work with software designed for the OS.
Microsoft and Apple), you are walking a fine line between powerful, feature-filled software and creating stable software. Unless you are a billion-dollar conglomerate who not only creates the presentation software, but also the OS it runs on ( i.e. The last thing you want is for your presentation to crash in the middle of your service unexpectedly. One of the things we hear over and over-regardless of the presentation software named-is the concern for stability.
