Hi, I use openproj - it is open source, runs mac native (can also run on 
windows and linux if you need to share) and imports / exports to ms project.

there is also omniproj which I've downloaded and had a play with - i've bought 
graffle and outliner from omni and the interface to omniproj is better than 
openproj, however i am not using it so much that i want to change...
Best regards
