I've used wine, or rather CrossOver Mac (a commercial release of Wine), to run eSword once; I started it up, blanched at the UI, and shut it right down. I'd rather eat a live rat than use something that uninspired.
OS X cannot be beat; I would never say a thing against Linux (Darwin is a version of FreeBSD), but if you can afford a Mac, there is really no comparison to anything on the market. I've run just about everything there is to run, and I wouldn't dream of buying anything but a Mac.
That being said, I'll check out the SwordSearcher link you pointed me to, Bro. Brandon. I'm actually kinda' sorta' helping with the MacSword 2 program (just running little tests and sending logs and crash info to the developer) and it's looking much better than the current version.
