That is somewhat of a problem right now. Multi-platform development has been a tough nut to crack. What I like about about Linux, KDE and QT is the developers tend to concentrate on the foundations first, then later work to add chrome.
Cocoa is nice, if you want to develop only for the Mac. The Mac reminds me of the S.F. Bay Area, lots of people "thinking different" in the same way. It is preferable to most other choices, but really isn't the free (as in freedom) alternative it poses as.
