Go ahead, grab a mac, you'll love it for a while because it's all new and shiny then realize that Apple doesn't know how to write software, all their apps suck, it only does about 80% of what you want it to with no options to make it do what you want...

I have an 8 core mac pro and a mac book pro... I also have Windows machines and I run Linux for all my servers...

Mac sucks, sorry fan boys... the thing they do best is form factor and they are GODS at form factor. Nobody touches them, IMO... However, functionality wise... way too limiting. The amount of apps is much smaller, their feature sets are smaller, and don't even THINK about running Adobe Suites on mac they fucking suck. Adobe can't program a native app to save their life. Everything runs way way way faster on a PC (adobe wise)... even with near identical hardware Windows smacks it down. This isn't Apple's fault at all, this is just Adobe being teh suck...

So yeah, switch if you want to! There's really no benefit... I can't stand the way OS X places (still) the bar at the top of ONE of your monitors... I run 2 30s on my OS X box so if I want to access a menu sometimes I have to mouse all the way over to the other monitor up to the top... may be a little thing but it annoys the shit out of me, I like my controls to be attached to the window, not the desktop (causing it to change every time you change apps)... that's lame... With more and more people using multiple monitor setups this UI decision is outdated. However it's part of the Mac "core philosophy" so...

Any way that's my two cents... iWork sucks, it's a half ass Office and you'll want Office anyway since real businesses use DOC, XLS, etc... so yeah, you'll need to buy all new licenses for anything you use regularly. Don't even bother with open office or one of those free ones, they're HORRIBLE...
