"Another interesting announcement here at PDC is that Microsoft is creating a subset of their cool, fancy pants UI layer (formerly code-named Avalon, now WPF) on other platforms, including the Mac! In fact, one of the demos involved showing vector graphics rendered in Safari using a Microsoft plug-in."

A rather obvious move -
Microsoft is selling Office for Mac OS X and also providing MSN IM clients. Having the same graphics toolkit available as on Windows should allow them to share code between the platforms. Should there be a demand for more, they can still port the rest of .NET. Trust me, should OS X or Linux gain dominance over the desktop, Microsoft would release their software for that platform in a nanosecond.
