I agree. In fact, perhaps you should not trust any sole source single

at once. Which do you think will win, Cocoa or Carbon ? Which one is
getting new features ? Where are new operating system services
showing up ?
Which one do the "important" developers want ? Which one occupies the
greater number of programmers at Apple ? Which one is still cross
platform
(MacApp) ?
A-hah, but which one is attracting more and more new blood? :-)
