The last time I used XP it was very stable, you're right..
However the programs that run on it hog resources, bring the entire OS to a grinding halt the minute you're really pushing the limits.
The only time my mac chugs, is when I start up XP, or Vista in parallels .. and that's only while windows is booting up, once running then it's fine.
I can be rendering a very complex 3d file and still boot up photoshop at normal speeds, where as with XP if I render the SAME file, Photoshop will take 2 or 3 times as long to boot..
It's little stuff like this that makes a mac a dream to use.
I've found little annoyances, but nothing like the frustration I was constantly going through as XP user.
Dirty you're obviously considering it based on all the good things you've heard from Mac users, so why let a bunch of Windows users change your mind
