CouchDBX is now Couchbase #407

Was reading "Installing on the Mac" Appendix (http://guide.couchdb.org/draft/mac.html), and this confused me a bit: The CouchDBX link sends me to http://www.couchbase.com/downloads, and there are multiple version to choose from. The proper one appears to be Couchbase (and only Community version for the Mac). You should mention the new name to streamline the experience.

Fixing this issue now requires much more than a new link, as couchbase works very differently than couchdb. I think it would be better to remove the whole discussion of couchdbx, and just rely on homebrew or macports as the installation methods. They are not very mac friendly, but they do work well.

Couchbase has not only renamed CouchDBX, but discontinued it. I second the idea of yanking that whole paragraph, although one can still find download links to early versions of CouchDBX.
