Someone chose for some reason to use .Net and that is tied to the *crappy* OS. Also that software may have not been mature enough for serious use when they had to make a decision. Now that it's made it's very time consuming to switch.
Myself I'm a Delphi fan, that is available for Window and Linux(Kylix), but not for the Mac which is BSD on Power PC chips.

For those interested, I found the link below to free evaluation
software for the Microsoft C# compiler. It's a large download (289

work for a period of 1 year.
There is a Free C# runtime/development environment called mono.
It is cross-platform, than tied to a single proprietary *crappy* OS. I
wonder why powerSDR developers are not embracing that platform instead
of the one from M$ . Spirit of amateur radio is not that of the
spirit of propreitary software development.

I fail to see why doing the same thing over and over and getting the same results every time is insanity: I've almost proved it isn't; only a few more tests now and I'm sure results will differ this time ...
