One thing I forgot to point out is you only need one mac if your looking at web only development. One person could use dashcode to build the ui, the ui would have all the navigation and ui controls, browser, buttons, stacklayouts etc.... (I suppose you could do this with iui and a good editor like eclipse on windows too) , But no data access components.
Than you could develop a jsf or jsp component that encapsulates the ui you built and exposes relavent properties to both java and the jsp or jspx page. I tend to keep my dataacess components seperate than the ui and than use java components that produce json arrays to feed the dashcode generated lists. Works extremely well. Here's a simple example. http://mooncatventures.com/blogs/atlantis/archive/2008/12/27/artshow-demo-is-now-available-for-demo.aspx (doesn't run on ie or firefox, need Iphone or safari) follow the links to the demo and the code. Would be a lot faster if I had a decent server. Pictures are loaded via the java application and defined via a simple list which is converted to json.
