I'll never understand the whole Mac vs PC mentality... I'll happily use vista and OSX without having to slate either or.
I bought myself one of the new generation 13" MacBooks a few months back, the biggest deciding factor was its robustness. Every windows laptop I looked at felt cheap and had 100s of plastic flaps ready to break off if you dared remove them. My Mac is made of aluminum and has one part that removes to expose the hard drive and battery, no CD drive pinging out ready for someone to snap.
I'm really amazed at its performance whilst dealing with hefty files in illustrator and photoshop. I've yet to suffer any real major slow downs and false program not responding messages. The only thing that niggles me is the glass screen is too glossy so any daylight bouncing off it makes it very hard to use.
Competition is a good thing in the OS department!
