I'm not looking for a "religious discussion" here, but I want to know the Pros and Cons of both development environments. I'm on the Mac, btw.

Not a NetBeans user, but a heads up on a few pro's of Eclipse PDT:

  • Code completion & bracket matching.
  • Syntax highlighting
  • Ease of project importing
  • HTML, CSS & JavaScript support
  • Excellent SVN integration.
  • Cross platform (PC/Mac/Linux)
  • Debugging.

Haven't really found any downfalls other than it seems to use around 120-150meg of RAM... Which I personally am not too bothered about. A lot of the features are included in most other IDE's, I think choice is more down to preference than a 'which is better' argument.
