Recent convert to Mac here too. Had my first MacBook Pro use in the field the other night. At the moment I'm doing image capture fully with Mac native software - Nebulosity 2 for image capture, pre-processing/calibration, aligning and stacking; PHD for guiding; CS4 PS for post-processing; Cartes du Ciel for planetarium; Astroplanner for planning and recording info.
The only thing I'm using Windows for is EQMod/ASCOM for GOTO, so I've got a VMWare Fusion Windows virtual machine running at the same time.
Works fine. Shame there's no EQMod for Mac. If I wanted to, I could go fully Mac native by using the mount hand controller for GOTO and GPUSB for guiding.
