Evo,
You can get emacs for OS X, and many other Unix programs too. Check out the links below.
Emacs for OS X

When I was talking about getting more work done on a Mac, it was because for what I was doing it was faster. For other things, Windows or Linux may be better. Although with OS X being Unix based, it can usually do pretty much everything Linux/*BSD systems can.
TCS, like I told you before, "Just like shooting fish in a barrel."
What do think people are going to do? Let others continue to highlight nothing but the flaws in Macs and give those less knowledgeable a very one sided view? I would say the Mac users around here are very mature, compared to some of the more vocal zealots (of all types) elsewhere.
