Adobe Acrobat Distiller will convert .ps files to .pdf
It's not OS X native yet though
CorelDraw and Illustrator should be able to open the .ps files

If you doubleclick onto a Postscript file, Preview is loaded and tells that
it is converting the file to PDF. I tried with a few files (EPSs and some others),
but in each case I ended up with an empty window.

If you read Preview's Help, it says:

Quote:
If you open a PostScript (PS) or EPS file in Preview, it is
converted to a PDF.
So you might like to try, those files were made in Windows, I guess.

On a mac you could send the .ps file to your printer and print to pdf instead of your actual printer.

Apple's Preview application automatically converts Adobe .ps files to PDF. At least it did back in 2002 through 2004.
