There is also the winforms implementation for mono to provide the Windows like API and look too as well as other GUI toolkits. The only issues are that what ever tool kit you decide to use must be installed on the computer you wish to run the application on. Clearly on a .NET platform that will be winforms by default and Gtk# is an extra package while on Linux there tends to be a host of GUI tool kit mono packages available in your favorite package manager.
