How well does Arduino work with Mac OS?

I want to get an Arduino Duemilanove external microcontroller board (or perhaps its more expandable Wiring equivalent) to play with. What are readers' experiences (good or bad) with development for this platform under Mac OS? I am using Mac OS 10.5 Leopard on a stock Macbook with a 2.1 GHz Core 2 Duo and 4 GB of RAM. Does the IDE function well? Are there any pitfalls I should be aware of?

Update:

UPDATE: something a little less Windows fanboi than "Macs suck" would be helpful. I need specifics.
