Java Development Environments for Macintosh?

spacecowboy420 asks: "My company (with my persuasion) has decided to move from a Windows platform to a Macintosh. The issue that is slowing this move is one of software solutions - more specifically a Jave IDE and Sales Contact Management software. We have been using JBuilder and Act!. Jbuilder is available for mac but is pricey, but the real rub is we need an IDE that supports the JClass Libraries (which Jbuilder does, but we would like to consider an alternative). Act! also doesn't have a mac version, so I am in new territory when it comes to mac contact solutions. What solutions have the Slashdot community found to be the best? What are the thoughts on Power Builder (although I know it doesn't support the JClass Libraries)?."

Real programmers don't even use computers. They write everything as operations on a Turing Machine language, and then run the operations with a paper and pencil.

Cease and desist

Dear Father Randy,

It has come to our attention here at Microsoft, that you have recently purchased a Macintosh. This explicitly violates the "No other vendors because I like the way Microsoft bites by balls" contract which you signed when you first became a Bill Gates Male Groupie. We must ask you to cease all contacts with Apple and related machines, or we will be forced to cut back on your supply of custom Soiled Bill Gates Boxers. Further violations will cause you to loose all access privlages to the BOHICA box.
