How do I get started with Java Development for Mac OS X?

1. Get the public beta for MacOS X from http://store.apple.com.

2. Download JBuilder 3.5 Foundation from http://www.borland.com/jbuilder.

3. Visit this site and follow the directions for installing JBuilder on MacOS X:

The reason you need special instructions for setting up JBuilder on MacOS X is that Borland does not yet formally support this installation. However, you can anticipate that Borland will officially support JBuilder on MacOS X very soon after MacOS X goes golden.
