Macs rock. It's hard to say bad things about them, except for the fact that Apple charges outrageous amounts of money and there really isn't good support for left-mouse clicking (something I'm addicted to).
But we have 2 at the house along with an assortment of Windows boxes, and they're really quite nice. Now, pre OS X, that's a different story. Previous OS versions would routinely crash and were just a very unpleasant experience. Only the artsy types seemed to have had the patience to put up with all the crap.

Simply put, a Mac is a UNIX box with a great GUI that runs most commercial, off-the-shelf software that people actually want. For me, that's worth paying a premium. Yeah, yeah, nitpick about Mach, blah, blah, blah... Are you at risk doing stupid things with a Mac?
