I have used both Windows and Macs for many years.
If I have to buy a computer from my money, it is going to be a Mac.
Nowadays you can even run Windows on them, if you must: Bootcamp,
Parallels and others make it possible.
The laptops outperform typical PC's anyway, even when running Windows
(natively).http://www.apple.com/getamac/windows.html
Of those I have seen switching to a Mac, it took them usually some two
weeks to learn the new habits, but none of them ever looked back.

I still think that at least for now, PC is still the machine of
commerce. I don't know of anyone who runs internet business
applications and/or networking on MAC. A couple of our clients use
them on their end but they are mostly single users/very small business/
single location. And as for running Bootcamp to run your home apps
and such, I guess it's like eating Bluefish. It' good
"IF"...!!! If you have to say "if" or "can" well, you get it I
think Just easier to use the PC in my opinion. My point of view is
from the perspective of a small IHP... Unix, Linux, Apache. Home
systems are XP and I run Vista just to stay informed for customer
support reasons. Our backups are also Linux boxes.

Oh yeah, we run mods that allow us to handle ASP in case anybody is
foolish.. oh, oh... I better stop now



If you are running PC apps under an Apple Microsoft OS emulator, you are
taking a performance hit, period.
