Not true!
Only the application written for the Cocoa API will have the Mac OS X look &
feel, all others will *not*.
Many application that run on the Mac OS X where written for POSIX, Java,
wxWidgets, older Mac APIs, etc, and will *not* "work together seamlessly",
at least not as seamlessly as if they where all based on one API.
By the way, the above is true for GNU/Linux, GNU/*BSD, Windows and probably
every other OS with more than one GUI API.

p.s. Most of the applications I use in Mac OS X do not use the Cocoa API so
I don't usually have the "benefit" of a consistent GUI.
p.p.s I really really dislike Aqua's look & feel, all those animation get on
my nerves!
