I use R quite a bit, especially for manipulating rasters. A learning curve does exist, but it is well worth the effort.

One more recommendation for kyngchaos.com.

+1 for William’s OpenSource GIS packages at kyngchaos.com

Note that http://www.kyngchaos.com/software:unixport has many popular open source geospatial packages (like MapServer, PostGIS, GRASS and QGIS) ported to Mac as well.
