I suppose it is easier if you use the (still PC only - when's the Mac
version due FS?) CD installer - assuming it doesn't mess your PC up.

I think it's fair to say that a small proportion of users, PC and Mac,
run into problems. I've done it successfully on 68K and PowerPC Macs
and have only run into problems with older brwosers.
