Get this for one of those just in case things, it's open-source therefore free. You might never use it but it's always there for if you need it, I have it for Ubuntu and I only use it when I can't be assed re-booting in the Vista or 7.

It's a bit of a pain to do, but it is not really needed piece of software so if you have time try it out

Re: Mac software
Don't bother with Wine just use VMWare Fusion.
Got myself a MacBook and this is what I use:
VMWare Fusion - Lets you install Windows on a partition and run it from inside Mac OS X.
Microsoft Word - For word documents obv.
Things - Task management / to do list.
Final Cut - Advanced movie making.
Logic Pro - Advanced sound editing.
VLC Player - Watching videos.
Spotify - Streaming music over the web.
Tweetie - The best Twitter client.
Adium - For MSN but 10x better than Mac Messenger
Photoshop - Image Editing.
Firefox - Internet Browsing.
World of Warcraft - To feed my addiction.
Call of Duty 4 - For when my addiction fails.
smcFanControl - You really need this to control the fan speed in your MacBook (if that's what you're getting) when playing games so you can keep it as cool as possible.
All the stuff you already get bundled with the Mac is also great.
