I love the Mono project, and I follow its progress with great hope. But I've tried to use Mono apps on my Mac (Popcorn Hour configuration things) and they flat out wouldn't run. The gui came up and it just hit a brick wall. I tried it on my Linux laptop... it showed a bit more... and then got stuck. I ran upstairs to a windows machine. Finally it worked. So the write once, run anywhere mantra hasn't exactly hit all Mono developers yet. I think C# is one of the best languages I've ever been blessed to use, but Mono still has a ways to go.
