You download a VMWare beta "fusion" for Intel-Mac:
< http://www.vmware.com/products/beta/fusion/ >
Then you download an Ubuntu ISO or a VMWare Ubuntu application:
< http://www.ubuntu.com/products/GetUbuntu/download?
action=show&redirect=download >
or
< http://www.vmware.com/vmtn/appliances/directory/ > then search for
ubuntu .

OpenEmbedded / BitBake; while they don't go together necessarily,
they seem to in this case.

No. What I'm saying is that you can get up to speed much more
quickly and reliably in a VM running Ubuntu Linux than you can under
OSX.
Since it sounds like you're a noob to most programming, you might as
well get going with Linux.
Hope this helps! - MLD
