Cliff, I'm about 3 weeks ahead of you.  The MacBook Pro is great!  Run it
with Parallels and you can develop in both Windoz and OSX  (nice for browser
output comparison).  OSX comes with PHP 4.x so you'll have to upgrade if you
want 5.x - mysql needs to be installed.  OSX also comes with Apache 1.x.
I'm in the process of installing Zend (appears to work w/out a problem).

Note:  OSX is a gui friendly version of FreeBSD.  The upside is it's Unix,
the downside is there a learning curve if you're not a Unix guy.

In general - jump in, the water is great!
