Whoa, dwindling what? Did you just make that up, or have I missed something?
Anyway, I bought a Macbook Pro before Boot Camp was announced (but not before the XP-on-Mac competition was over), so running XP on it was a requirement for me. BUT, the main reason was that I knew that Adobe wasn't coming out with Universal Binaries until next year, and I need Photoshop for my professional work.
But this changes nothing for Xara, imo. It took a few days, but now I feel that I really don't want to use XP anymore, despite certain things actually being more usability friendly in XP (you really start to appreciate the "boring" XP taskbar, even though Exposé is helluva cool). Somehow, OS X makes me feel good. Perhaps it's the way everything fades smoothly... kinda tells you to "relax, take it easy, I'm here to make you comfy". When Xara is released for OS X, the only thing I will boot into XP for is the occasional game.
Art should tell a story. Don't paint a moment, paint a lifetime.
