Hello,<br />
<br />
We are trying to migrate our Java developers from Windows based development to Mac platform. Wondering if experts have used both the platforms for development.. if so I would like to take the suggestions:<br />
<br />
I'm trying to compare:<br />
Installing and configuring java tools (eclipse, apache tomcat, other frameworks spring, struts, ext js etc.,)<br />
Security on MAC over Windows OS<br />
Other features such as installing different versions of JDK, IBM tools (WebSphere) etc.,<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

Current Mac computers use ATI Radeon or nVidia GeForce graphics cards and include a dual-function DVD and CD burner, called the SuperDrive. Current Apple hardware includes the iPad, iPhone, iMac, Mac Pro, Macbook, iPod and Apple TV. Discontinued hardware includes the Apple I, Apple II, and the Apple III, the Lisa, the Newton, the Quadra, Performa, Centris, Macintosh II and LC series, the Power Macintosh, iBooks and the MacBook.
