How do you use Eclipse on a Mac and where is it?!!!

Ok, so I clicked on the so-called Eclipse link on buzztouch, which took me to a convoluted page with other downloads, beginning with SDK. I downloaded the SDK Starter Kit, which is not Eclipse, and I downloaded and the ADT Plugin for SDK. So what does this have to do with Eclipse and how do you open it on the MAC????

Morning. Eclipse is usually for Windows and xcode is for Mac. The only way you are going to be using eclipse on a Mac is if you are running Windows in a Virtual Machine. You can buy xcode for $4.99 and eclipse if free.

Thanks, I found it already. Now, I get an error message when importing my project, which I have posted elsewhere.

Just read back through this post, in my desire to provide an answer for ipodbuzz I answered in work mode and not BT mode. I have Eclipse running fine (yes x64) on my Mac alongside xcode, the windows comment insertion was made in haste. Oh well. I knew what I meant, just didn't type it that way.
