BTW always provide an option not to use Aqua. There are exactly zero Swing apps which behave like Mac apps and having them look the same can be confusing as hell.
It's slow, it's buggy, it has a HORRID HORRID HORRID interface. Absolutely HORRID!
VPC beat out many commercial products. RealPC, SoftWindows, Blue Label, and various DOS cards from Apple and OrangePC. When I say beat out I don't mean out-sell, I mean beat them out of the market with a boot up their ass!
Comparing VPC to Bochs is LAUGHABLE!
If Apple wants to make a VPC-like product they would be better off starting from scratch than trying to hold Bochs above water. Seriously.
One other major annoyance in OS X is the immutable bit. In MacOS a locked file could be moved or renamed which followed the mac methodology where a file's path wasn't considered constant or used as a reference. Now the opposite bheavior is true.
To add to the stupidity you can still move or rename a hist directory or non-root volume thus changing the file's path. What a pain in the ass! The ability to lock a file's contents used to be a useful feature Apple!
When the hell are we going to retire the damned shuttle? Please stop these expensive publicity stunts NASA, we know sending Isrealis to space has nothing to do with science and so do you.

Unfortunately the Aqua version will behave just like this version so it'll be even worse.
Qt apps on OS X behave exactly the same as Qt apps on any other platform. They behave like Win3.1 apps.
It's slow as hell and saturates a 10Mbit connection!
You forgot to mention that Bochs sucks
You can have remote accelerated GLX by running Apple's X11 server. I've even used this in conjunction with WINE, for example running gears.exe
Screw Cocoa...those apps drive me up the wall!
I'll stick with Carbon apps until Apple fixes the text views and file i/o
Unfortunatly Qt is all appearance and no proper behavior. Qt support in OS X is over-rated.
Unfortunately Qt doesn't support OS X all that well |-p

Don't bother.

We're not even mining the rich resources of Antartica for crissake!

The problem with your theory is OpenOffice has a horrible, horrid interface.
If OpenOffice is your example of a Mac app, I might as well use Windows!!!
Multiplatform apps tend to be the worst.
The important consistency to maintain is the Aqua appearance implying Aqua behavior. quartz-wm breaks this.
widgets != human interface.
quartz-wm would be FAR more usable if it didn't use Aqua window dressing.
However it is a good idea if you want to confuse the hell out of your customers.
Is that window active or inactive? Huh? I have to move my mouse to type? Huh?
It doesn't. X11 apps are going to behave the same regardless of the Xserver implementation.

In fact, please retire NASA. Seriously.
I've heard that song and seen that dance before...
Whaaaa?
Eh, regardless somebody port Darwin to this |-)
Big buttons? No thanks. That's one of the reasons I hated Chimera, it was impossible to only have a url field.
If you want a new front-end for webcore you're free to do so. That's what Omni plans to do.
They never have.
In fact many of the revised guidelines are adopted from 3rd party conventions.
So I guess those are the only two non-left leaning media outlets you could think of.
I wouldn't lick that cadmium either.
I'm sure you'll be filtering your water for agriculture and farming too.
Idiot...
