Apple has
MS is one of the largest software providers for Apple, and really stuck with them through the lean, 'Apple is dying every 5 minutes' years.

Most of the large software companies play major roles on the others platforms, as much as they compete. Be it iTunes or Office.

I think MS has more to gain by spreading C# then by holding it back. So there is about as much of a chance of MS pulling Mono as Apple pulling iTunes off Windows.
It just wouldn't make sense.
