       | willing to pay $5 for a trial of a mac version :) Respect it's
       | quite a bit of work to support a second OS and window manager and
       | you have to start somewhere - Hope it goes well and makes its way
       | over to Mac soon!

         | Ah yes, such a winning way of referring to people who like a
         | different text editor to you. Way to up the quality of
         | discourse.

       | 240hz monitor, are there any IDEs or text editors that can render
       | that fast?
