Like you I am a Mac person, but as developers, we have to recognise
that the majority of computers still run Windows.

would make them very un-Windows like.
They have done an excellent job of making default interface objects
that look reasonably good on all platforms, but if you really want the
Mac look & feel, the you will either have to develop your own custom
buttons, or switch to programming in XCode where the Interface Builder
does everything in pure Mac mode.

That is purely a personal and commercial decision. No need to
apologise for it :-)
