The only company that I know of that has made an effort to specifically 
be compatible with the Macintosh for this purpose is Olympus. 

MacSpeech even offers a refurbished version of the Olympus recorder:

You can also attach a microphone to an iPod to the same effect:

Of course, as any audiophile will tell you, there are always ways to get 
audio into your Mac, but I assume that you are looking to do so in the 
most seamless way possible.
