AFAK, there is no other method than center to center the window on 
screen, but doing one that really center the window is not very 
difficult.

@implementation NSWindow (TrueCenter)

- (void)trueCenter {
   NSRect frame = [self frame];
   NSRect *screen = [[self screen] frame];
   frame.origin.x = (screen.size.width - frame.size. width) / 2;
   frame.origin.y = (screen.size.height - frame.size.height) / 2;
   [self setFrameOrigin:frame.origin];
}

@end
