    Ok, ok, thanks for all the mail regarding Macintosh vs. X windows.  I
    feel like I tried to get a drink of water at a fire hydrant.  Let me
    refine my question a little: Macintosh vs. XView.  Most of the
    complaints about X had to do with the grunginess of Xlib and Xt.  Can
    anyone compare the Mac Toolbox to Xview?

There is actually a book produced by Sun that is called something like
"Sun development for Mac programmers". It's intended to compare the
two environments. Don't have more knowledge on it than a quick glance
in the bookstore though. However it's just what you are asking for,
from the Sun perspective.
