Except that you are kinda forced to pay for the iPhone developer portal unless you want to jailbreak your iPhone since you need those certificates and provisioning profiles.
But to develop for the Mac you just sign up for free and download XCode (or get it from the install DVD, albeit outdated).
The only advantage is probably getting access to pre-released versions of OSX so you could test your app but I somehow doubt there is such a large number of people that need to do this that badly and couldn't afford the previous $500.
