But... It's always a struggle between the speed of RB and the
beauty of the Frameworks of the OS. As said I'm using a lot of

create it between the relative high walls of RB. RB for me is only
used to create Mac Apps and won't compile to Win.
I'd propose to give Cocoa a try, in case you write pure OS X apps.
Cocoa isn't that
complicated - once you invested some time in learning basics of the
language and basics
of the framework.
If you need to write DB-bound stuff, CoreData and bindings is
simply great.
As I posted earlier, several sites mentioned the fact, that Apple
is going to
implement a garbage collector in Cocoa. This, there will shortly be
no need
for complex malloc/free problem hunting. If garbage collection is
finally available,
you never need to release anything - as in RB.
Except that it's still Objective-C, which means that one will be able
to evade memory management. This means that it will be possible to
do it by accident, and so the need for complex malloc/free problem
hunting will remain, though perhaps that need will be reduced.
