All the time ;-) Did you know 98% of Geronimo was written on a Mac?
The PowerPC macs were difficult to develop on as they were slow, but
the Intel Macs (MacBook, MacBookPro, Mac Pro) etc are outstanding.
The latest eclipse (Ganymede) is erfect as is Intellij. It gets 2
humbs up from me.
I am not sure about the problems you have run into as everything works
for me.
Good luck in your decision, and I think you will like the Mac as a dev
environment.

Folks,
I'm seriously considering moving to a Mac as my primary development
system.
However, I've seen some pretty strange doings when I've experiment
with CXF development on the small Mac I keep at home.
The usual cycle of mvn/eclipse/mvn frequently ends up in a state where
eclipse is convinced that the JRE has disappeared. (It can't find
'Object').
Do any of the rest of you do routine development on MacOS?
