I generally run FB2, MySQL, Tomcat & Firefox and it runs fine in a 1gb pc partition. I shortly expect to move over to my mac, and I am thinking 1gb for paralells to run and I am hoping I might be able to run mysql and tomcat on the mac side and fb2 and firefox in the pc partition. But I am not clear how networking works between the two virtual environments.

Unfortunately, FlexBuilder 2 is a resource dog... I had to upgrade my machine to 2gig's of ram just for it to be usable. This poor laptop now runs (when I'm coding):
 
FB2
Dreamweaver (sometimes)
ColdFusion
MySQL
SQL Server 2000
IE
Firefox
 
Now, let's say I'm on a Mac... that means I'll be running one less server (SQL Server), but still the rest. How am I supposed to run Parallels on top of all that just to run FB2? I'd need a machine maxed out at 4gigs of ram :)

Tom,
You need to give yourself an hourly rate and then ask yourself how much
money the IDE will save you. The effort involved in not using the IDE
could end up costing you more in the long run.

I do think the charting is just a nice to have, and people will release
their own cheap/free charting components so you can save yourself even
more money by not going for that option.

2 years from now when somebody releases flexClipse (tm) free IDE then
this may be a different conversation.:)
