Dear Erel, it will be possible someday to release a Mac version of B4A, great for that we would be a Macbook?

I think he writes everything in .NET which sadly has a windows attachment. With the direction microsoft and windows is going, I may be ditching it soon anyways.

There are over 100,000 Mac-based developers (in addition to Windows ones) using Corona SDK that are getting frustrated with Corona and looking for an alternative where they can stick with their (our) Macs and not have to mess around with Windows and VMs! A huge potential user base untapped - this really should be considered.

If you go for OS X, don't forget Linux, please

Appears now that .NET is released on the Macintosh about a year ago with limitations which I am sure will be fixed over time. So its viable.

Its been asked for many times before but I will add my voice once more

I would pay again if there existed a B4X IDE for OS X. Its only fair to Erel, if he works so hard to produce this, that he is paid for his extra work.

Its not uncommon to pay for separate licenses for Windows or Mac versions of the same program.

I am using WinXP 64 in a VM on my Mac Mini and MacBook Pro. A Mac IDE would remove a lot of unnecessary processes (a whole OS for a start!) and be well worth paying for.
