Some answers:
JMeter can simulate as many users as your machine can handle.  For each
user, a separate 
thread is generated.  For a standard machine 100 threads seems to be a
rule-of-thumb max.  
JMeter can also run in distributed mode, which allows you to control
multiple JMeter's from a 
single machine.

JMeter is written in Java, and works on Windows and Linux/Solaris.  I
don't know if anyone 
runs it on Mac.

It can currently test HTTP, FTP, and JDBC, though HTTP is by far the
most mature part of 
JMeter.  In the nightly builds, there has been added the ability to test
arbitrary Java objects, 
with some minor programming on your part.

No scripting languages.  Test scripts are defined in JMeter's own
format.

I don't know what Bandwidth simulation support means?

JMeter can handle several kinds of dynamic data, allowing it to react to
information returned 
from a web server.  It can also record your actions in a typical web
browser to make test 
script generation easier.

I don't know what Controller/Injector features means?

Hope this helps,

-Mike
