If it is a Mac, of course it will work. If not then the processor will work but you have to figure out the other things on your own.

You are in the hackentosh world then and I cannot say much for sure. I am 99% sure that the CPU will work fine, it will be the components you will have to worry about.

I am doing iPhone development on one of the new MacBook Pros (15'', core i5). Snow Leopard and XCode/iPhone SDK are working perfectly.
Not only: thanks to the 4 virtual cores of the new core i5, compiling apps is much, much faster. And Grand Central Dispatch of Snow Leopard does really help with that.
