Chris,
  Have you looked into Revolution (http://www.runrev.com) at all? It's
similar in many ways to HyperCard/MetaCard, and has been compared to
RealBasic in terms of functionality. The nice thing about it is that you can
compile it for MacOS9, MacOS X, Windows, and Linux/Unix (many flavors)
simultaneously, without needing platforms for each (though some of the
button design helps to be tested on the platforms you choose). In addition,
for smaller apps the Starter Kit is free to use. No affiliation, just
passing along the info.

Sincerely,
Matt
