It is a question of intellectual curiosity I believe, maybe you are too old and tired to take new risk and have more fun ?

Yup, that must be it. I'm too old to "get" Objective-C. After all, it's technology that's only 20 years old. It's really for those young whipper-snappers, who are into risk-taking and extreme sports. Us old fuddy-duddys better stay on the porch, or we might get hurt.

Well, thanks...now that I know that Mac software development is only for the younger generation, I can see that I should just give up now and forget about ever being able to write Mac software. After all, Apple only wants the adrenaline junkies writing software for their platform.

disturb me are REALLY minor relative to the other stuff.  If Xcode
and IB and the documentation worked perfectly, I could easily
overlook how Objective-C works.

I know that it can be biased, but I am using every day Visual 2003 for my job, producing C++ code, and sincerely, I don't find the tools and doc superior to the MacOSX ones. Maybe it has more sense to use them when programming C#/.Net code, I don't know.

Well, a) you're using a version of VS that's five years old? And b) yes, VS does a somewhat better job with C#/.NET code with respect to Intellisense, auto-completion, etc. But it's not actually bad for C+ + stuff, assuming you're using an up-to-date version of the program.
