Hi Marshall,
thanks for the link; apart from being biased he is also wrong - Qt does support Mac OS-X, and using native windows is indeed of no practical importance as long as the toolkit is good enough in emulating the look. In the end emulating scales much better and allows a lot of things that are simply impossible when you are restricted to the native widget's capabilities.
