I've only become involved with the Blitz products with the release of BlitzMax for OS X. Glad they did it that way because I just love it. It has put fun back into recreational programming again.
For my part I think they put out a great product for the Mac. Can it be improved? Certainly the language is and will continue to evolve. The actual IDE can be improved too but I have found it to be emminently useful. My biggest request in the OS X version would be a drop down procedure list in the source editor.
I am surprised they released a Mac version first. From what I can tell they have a history of Windows only products. What do the authors say about why they went with Mac first? Were they developing all version simulataneously and the Mac was done first?
