It does to me, not that that means much. I started hosting my own 
site on MachTen about 18 months ago. About 6 months ago I added 
another computer for development and bought WebTen. The server now 
runs WebTen, but the development system, an iMac DV SE, runs MachTen. 
Both were very suitable for the purpose, but WebTen is easier to set 
up and offers better web performance. MachTen is saddled with trying 
to be a full UNIX, which it does very good at, but WebTen is 
optimized for web service.

I typically develop perl running MacPerl unless there is something I 
need from the UNIX side of things. If that's the case, MachTen covers 
it quite well.
