I use SharpDevelop instead of Visual Studio 2005 at work (among of other tools), because it's damn fast and it doesn't eat much resources.
I think that Mono is future for applications - if there's compatible API and ABI, they can run anywhere if code doesn't use stupid hacks. Path conversion is not an issue - it can be done on the fly if required.
