Given the fact that een in 2006 Emacs is not multi-threaded and a single operation (e.g. a CVS checkin, calculation in R via ESS) can block the entire editor, Chris may have valid reasons! If that's not the case, I wouldn't bother with emacs-server. I wrote a little startup script a while ago: http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/CustomizeAquamacs#toc5 It's written for Aquamacs, but a little customization should make it work with Carbon Emacs just the same.
