Hi Cara, I think as far as myself is concerned I'm not so much apposed to learning or using Objective C, but that I'd have to literally rewrite all of my games etc from scratch to use it. Since I have software in Python, some in C++, etc I don't like having to rewrite them in Objective C just because Apple decided to ignore compatibility with every single OS in the world and do their own thing. :D
