Re: Mac OS X and MySQL

[Erik Price <pricee@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

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.
