All OmniGroup applications are written in Cocoa, as I'm sure you
would've gathered if you'd read their site in detail. Mail is a Cocoa
application. iTunes and iMovie are Carbon because they were originally
for OS 9 and ported to OS X (a full rewrite would've taken longer than
people were prepared to wait, and been pretty pointless).

are there any apps on my system now that were written in Cocoa? Like
OmniWeb, is that cocoa? Itunes? Is iMovie written in Cocoa? Is the
mail
program? It would be reassurring to see some fully fleshed out working
applications and know they were done with Cocoa before I invest a lot of
time learning it. I have the beginner's mistrust in OOP, since, as the
previous poster mentioned, in the end it all goes back to serial
execution
of instructions, more or less linear.
