A valid reason. But without setups like this it'd be even harder to have programs that worked cross-platform like this. Ones that have to be specifically made, then maintained for multiple OS's are hard to manage and require a lot of money / programmers.
So while native apps are aw some and I'd also prefer them, I like it when innovations are made like Air, Ajax, etc... so we can have more productivity and things linking together.
Just think if HTML web pages only worked on windows..
