[QUOTE="CaptSaltyJack, post: 371571, member: 29975"] I will be switching (slowly) to OS X starting in May. Parallels will help wean me off Windows. When Vista was first announced, I was excited about it, but now that it's out and people are *****ing about it and having all sorts of issues, I decided I wanted to jump ship. I was looking at Ubuntu for a while, it's a really solid OS, and there's tons of support for it, but Linux just isn't 100% there yet. Some things take a LOT of work to get working. Of course, once you get it working, it's solid. I've decided to get a Mac Pro. I'm excited to make the switch. I do have a question about programming though. I really like Microsoft Visual C# Express, and how it has a very visual interface for designing your application's UI (drag and drop buttons, text boxes, menus, etc), and then coding the logic behind the frontend. Is there a similar thing for OS X? I'd like to continue developing software, but this time for the Mac. Thanks. Looking forward to going Mac soon!! [/QUOTE]
