I don't want to start any arguments, but statements like this annoy
me. I'm what most of you would probably call a Cocoa programmer,
although I prefer to think of it as just using any tool which gets the
job done, whether Cocoa, Carbon, or miscellaneous. And the simple fact
of the matter is that you do not need to use Carbon to develop
applications for multiple platforms. I have personally developed more
than one application which used Cocoa on the Mac and other APIs on
other platforms, including one which ran with the same core codebase
on Mac OS X, Windows, and Palm. You most certainly can use Cocoa in
your cross-platform applications and it works well if you do it right.
