Really don't want to get wrapped up in a circa 1990 mac vs PC flame war. But, I'll tread carefully... ;-)

I just want to say that, using both platforms extensively, I find that using a completely outdated Mac from around 2000 (a G3 iMac), I can typically get more of my day-to-day work done faster and easier with that than a state-or-the art PC box. And, as a bonus, no worries of pop-ups, trojan horses, virus', or spyware. Really, it just works.

Of course a G3 iMac is no powerhouse, so for some specific (particularly modern) tasks its seriously unable to compete. My only point is that the whole PC/Mac flame war always fails to take into account the only important factor - Which machine makes you more productive?. For me, the Mac platform has always been the hands-down winner in this category.

Nobody really cares which platform some propeller-headed geeks think are better anymore. Macs talk seamlessly to PCs, PCs talk seemlessly to Macs, and the Internet lets everyone talk to each other without barriers. Get whatever computer you think will serve your purposes best. Personally, I think 80% of the public would be better served using a Mac - they should at least consider it.
