Any Mac app I come across that requires .NET will be avoided.
If you’re going to write apps for Mac OS X, do it in Objective C using Xcode, the way Jobs intended.
Seriously, with all the security flaws MS software contains, why would anybody want their crapware on an otherwise exploit free environment?
I thought the security was supposed to be inherent in the OS, and couldn't be compromised by an application.

So to VS guys I say: Give XCode a chance. It’s better than you think once you are used to Mac interfaces and if you’re working on Cocoa apps (which XCode is highly optimized for). To XCode guys I say: until you’ve used VS for a while, don’t assume that XCode has all the features it should. In the programming editor world, XCode is still kind of primitive.
