Daniel H. Steinberg's blog over at O'Reilly talks about setting up a lab of Macs for an XP (Extreme Programming) workshop. This really helps illustrate part of why I like OS X so much. Yes, unix has been around forever and these tasks aren't necessarily difficult, but the difference is everything just works well together. Networking, web serving, etc. I can just imagine the hassles getting a Windows environment set up to do the same thing.
