I am also lucky enough to be on a Mac, and I mix it up, depending on  
what I'm doing, as far as web stuff. If I'm already in terminal, I'll  
just use vi (just to make people angry). Otherwise, if I have  
Dreamweaver up, I'll just use that. It's more timing than anything  
else. But for the vast majority, non-web, I am using XTools, which is  
not only IDE, but two IDEs. With a strong use of MVC, it's broken out  
into XCode and Interface Builder. Those are my top three.
