- A good example of a lousy cross platform program must be Microsoft Word
- 6.0 for Macintosh. I think Microsoft even complile to some sort of P-code
- that isn't very optimized for Macintosh (in addition to the
- windowish-slusgish-gui).

- I've just finished a project where we had to use Zink, and it was hell on
- earth, It's very windows-based (The menu's dim if you havn't selected the
- "main" window), and has lots of quirks and very un-macintosh stuff. The
- project could have been done in half the time without it, using my
- Mac-classes and cooking up something simular for Windows.
