Either is fine. Bash is just not installed by default on OSX. It is entirely
possible to download and install it.

% bash --version
GNU bash, version 2.03.0(2)-release (powerpc-apple-darwin1.3)
Copyright 1998 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
% uname -a
Darwin jonlap.whichever.com 1.4 Darwin Kernel Version 1.4: Sun Sep  9
15:39:59 PDT 2001; root:xnu/xnu-201.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC  Power Macintosh
powerpc
% perl --version
This is perl, v5.6.0 built for darwin

(you will notice that I haven't recompiled it since I upgraded to 10.1, but
it runs just fine anyway)

However, Perl is installed by default...so if you want to switch to that you
have my +1, but I'm not making a mandate or anything.

tcsh is the default shell on OSX.
