OR you can run windoze in a virtual machine, which is what I am going to
try first.


That is what I don't understand and why I asked about reliability, etc.
Why would you by a Mac to run Windows?

Or are there other advantages or capabilities of a Mac that make it worth
the investment?

Serious question .... not being snarky. You just happen to be one of the
few people I know that has recently purchased a Mac that can also run
Windows.
