Dusty, The only thing you'll really miss is SQL Server. Everything else that you will use will either have a Mac install or there will be a Mac program that does the same thing. I use Windows for CF development at work and at home I use Macs for my freelance development. I use Eclipse as my IDE so that's the same on both sides. Database work is the only fly in the ointment. I do miss Beyond Compare on the Mac but there are some Mac programs (DeltaWalker and Araxis Merge) that are supposed to as good though I haven't tried an extensive review.
