In the interest of being more civil and adding to my comment too, I agree with most of what you have said. I only disagree with the snarky Windows development

In the interest of being more civil and adding to my comment too, I agree with most of what you have said. I only disagree with the snarky Windows development comment. :) Visual Studio is hands down the best IDE I have ever used. The DirectX API is very nice (just ask any game developer and they'll tell you how much of a pig OpenGL is to work with). I use OSX at work and Windows at home, I much prefer development on Windows.
