MacBS2 is fantastic. More elegant in its design than Parallax's PC software.
It does lack DEBUGIN support and a memory map but you can still use DEBUGIN by running a terminal program. Though MacBS2 and the terminal program don't share the serial port well; you may have to quit one to run the other.

Great Program! - Version: 2.0b10, 7/21/2005 11:04PM PST
