In my experience R runs just fine on the Mac. For basic use you don't need to do anything special whatsoever. Just install R as you would any other program. If you need to install packages from source you will probably want to install Xcode. Other Mac FAQs are at http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/RMacOSX-FAQ.html
