[QUOTE="Nethfel, post: 1009541, member: 89124"] The only argument there is for using a windows box for development is if you're developing windows apps (which you can easily use a VM for of course) - but trying to develop either win32 or MFC apps on xcode is really not possible (at least easily), but if you're a C# programmer it's more possible but doesn't really look enjoyable (from what I've read). Myself, I don't program C#, and stay away from anything .net (don't like the overhead even if it makes certain things easier) and although I haven't written any windows apps for a while now, I'd probably use wxWidgets anyway so that way whatever I wrote could easily be written on either platformed and compiled on either platform (win or osx) as a gui app (although I'll admit I'm working on teaching myself objective c :) ).
