If you have a directory "Developer" under the root directory (same 
level as "Applications", and "Users") then you have installed the 
Developer Tools.  If not, then check the CDs that came with your OSX 
CDs as you may have received a Developer Tools CD.  If not, then the 
installation is available on the apple.com web site under 
developer.apple.com/tools/
