It still seems to have a severely limited set of objects in comparison 
to MSP.  My main gripe, however, is that it just doesn't respect OS X 
keys since it's TCL/Tk based, and all of the commands that I expect to 
hit don't work when I expect them to.  This effect hasn't worn off yet.

FWIW, Supercollider 3 (SC Server) is coming along nicely, with new 
binary snapshots released in a semi-timely fashion.  Native to OS X 
(and apparently now runs on Linux too), and with a wide array of 
objects.

And it's completely free now.
