Cocoa vs. Carbon is like MFC vs Win32 API..  they're essentially the 
same.  SDL on OS X uses Cocoa, but mostly just to open up a window and 
handle the event loop, everything else is low level graphics stuff 
that's the same whichever way you go... only differs in how you get a 
handle to the bitmap (and if it's going to be backwards compatible to 
OS9).
