Qt beta For Mac OS X Released

znu writes: "Trolltech has announced the release of Qt/Mac Open Beta 1. The final release is expected in October. It's good to see that OS X users will soon be able to run quite a lot of graphical *nix apps without installing X11. Screenshots are here(1), here(2) and here(3)." ClaytonianG cites this MacCentral article as well, which links to a blurb on the Trolltech site about the program from which those screenshots are taken.

running X on OSX is rather painless anyway (and runs fast... far faster to load than bloody Classic anyway!) but to be able to run the apps without X can only be a good thing. i suspect people won't really get that excited until some nice apps start appearing.
