I've been using Unix OSes almost exclusively since before Windows had TCP/IP, mostly Linux since 1998 and Mac OS X for desktops/laptops since 2004. One of the premier ephemeris applications I had used for many years was XEphem, which had no equal in the Windows world. It hasn't really kept up UI and graphics wise, so SkySafari Pro has mostly replaced it for me (even though it's lacking many of the useful features of XEphem).

I'm not into astro-imaging so I can't really comment there, but for my normal shooting OS X has all the photography and image processing software I need. SkySafari Pro controls my scope very nicely.

Cheers
Steffen.
