Another very interesting visual programming system for the Mac is National 
Instruments' LabView.  Although largely intended for lab equipment control 
and data analysis, it *is* in fact a general purpose programming 
environment ... just with a very powerful data analysis library.  If what you want to do is engineering or scientific applications this is particularly useful. They have a low cost (maybe even free) demo that you can get by 
calling them at (512)794-0100 or (800)IEEE-488.

These are nice people, and very smart.  Ask for their "bouncing cube" 
demo, which shows some rather amazing animation for an interpreter.
