OS X has great FTP support! It's built right into the Finder. Just open the Finder, click Go > Connect to Server, enter your FTP details and that's it. You can use your FTP server just like it was a folder on your local computer. Also, there are some wonderful 3rd party tools for (S)FTP on the Mac. There are the open source programs Fugu ( http://rsug.itd.umich.edu/software/fugu/ ) and CyberDuck ( http://cyberduck.ch/ ). There are also great commercial programs like Transit ( http://www.panic.com/transmit/ ). Also, all modern Macs support dual monitors (including the Macbook). No GUI FTP support?
