I'd like to know what is going to happen to maxwell when, from mid 2006 (officially), apple will change it's processor towards an intel based core and the software will need to be ricompiled.
Quite a number of rumors say the new intel based computers will be announced in the beginning of 2006.
Considering that no osx RC has yet delivered for our actual osx verison, do you think they are developping in consideration of the soon-to-come changes in apple's computers?
no answer

Really, this is the very last of my worries. The majority of customers will still use PowerPCs in 2006, it will need quite a bit of time until this becomes relevant.

Let's hope they are using XCode, this would make things a whole lot easier...we could try to post a question to them ...

Just look at the interface to MW on OSX, there's no way they're using xCode. I'd put my money on CodeWarrior unfortunately

If you were to look at the interface with a little more knowledge, you would see that it is built using Trolltech QT 4, which is by any standard the most sophisticated cross platform GUI available.
(And it
uses xCode for development)
The good question is: Why have NL choosen to pick a really ugly 80's style skin for their applications on both Mac and Windows, when they only have to throw a switch to have perfect Aqua widgets on OSX and nice native XP look on Windows? Strange, if you ask me...
(Oh and for the thread subject, see last paragraph on page linked above)
