Some defense for the Mac, I have been learning MySQL from my tiny little G3 PowerBook. And doing development on it seems to be a logically sound idea, as I'll be migrating the data to a HP/UX server when the project is ready to go "public".
I like Mac OS X because I finally have a fully-supported desktop Unix implementation with plenty of open-source AND commercial software available. I guess I'm biased, though. Don't knock it if you haven't used it, OS X/Darwin is awesome.
