General Development Ars' Peter Bright wrote an article today entitled "From Win32 to Cocoa: a Windows user's conversion to Mac OS X", in which he explains why he believes "Windows is dying, Windows applications suck, and Microsoft is too blinkered to fix any of it". These are rather harsh words, but there is a definitive element of truth in it. The article is part one in a three-part series.

Because cross-platform frameworks have some limitations that for some developers are just unacceptable. Opera, for example, is written with Qt. However it does not look like a native OSX app at all. That is why it is not an option for some developers. They want %100 native looking apps.
