I bought a Mac to partially do Java development, but I also do .NET development on a Windows VM via Fusion. I've been extremely happy with the setup. I also do Ruby development, and was working in Windows with an Ubuntu VM. I would do Java and .NET on Windows and Ruby (and some Java) in the Ubuntu VM.
With the new consolidation, I've got a solid Unix OS as my primary, and just drop into Windows when I need to work on Windows-specific stuff. It's been great. I don't think I could quite settle for Ubuntu as my primary OS, but Mac OS is a pretty solid day to day operating system. The only thing it's really missing that I haven't settled on is Visio (I know about Visio alternatives, but I need an app that can read and WRITE Visio format).
