The mac thing will only haunt you if your uni/college/whatever goes

'We don't support macs'

It's a classic phrase. Basically it means if you have a problem, it's your problem. It's the exact phrase i use in my current job. :)

--- Quote from: Kanno ---So is the mac thing gonna come back to haunt me?  I had to go mac (and why wouldn't I want to?) so I could run my pro audio stuff, but I figured the darwin/unix core would run everything I needed for programming.
--- End quote ---

I had no problem using my mac for my programming projects. 100% of my assignments in 1B and 2nd year were written on my PowerBook. A combination of Xcode, Eclipse, and a Unix C++ compiler (accessed using the Terminal) were all I needed. The only trick would be if you'll be developing in .NET, then you'll need to use a little Unix trickery to get the Mono platform to work to enable the .NET framework. But seriously, forget Microsoft :p

infract:
My CS degree requires no previous programming experience. The first course was a Java OOP intro course, which turned out to be a snap.
