Permanent link Commercial software I'm running on my Mac

I find it interesting how little commercial software (apart from Apple's OS X Snow Leopard and iLife) runs on my Mac:

That's all. (As an Adobe partner, our company also has licenses for developing and testing against the Adobe Creative Suite but that's not what I use to get my work done.)

It's great that developing software (at least the web-based kind we're doing) requires almost no investments these days, aside from hardware and an Internet connection! I remember very well how frustrated I was (as a pupil and student) for not being able to program because serious money was being charged for IDEs and compilers…
