I remember the 1990s, which probably informs my view here, but I'll tell you this: There's something to be said for targeting a cross-platform browser instead of a single OS. Windows. It was Windows. Outside of what the (much smaller!) Open Source world developed, stuff worked on Windows in the 1990s and practically nothing else.
Now I can open a browser and have a 3D sculpting application and nobody needs to care what OS I run. You can denigrate webapps all you want, I won't hear you over the sound of how happy I am that I don't have to dual-boot with Windows anymore.
