I would value my time at over $100 an hour. At that rate the price premium of a Mac is quickly wiped out by a few hours spent:
* building a PC from scratch and installing whatever OS you like.
* removing preinstalled crapware if I buy an off the shelf Windows PC, or installing Linux / OS X and mucking around getting all the hardware to work.
* reinstalling Windows even once after your install gets trashed by driveby malware because your flash version is one day out of date.
If you can't understand why a professional in their field would choose to pay a small initial price premium to save time and to have the best tool to do their job, then you're a completely useless faggot who deserves to be shot and killed.

Bought a pc installed with windows and everything,0 hours spend on setup
* removing preinstalled crapware if I buy an off the shelf Windows PC, or installing Linux / OS X and mucking around getting all the hardware to work.
There was crapware preinstalled but nothing what would annoy,some of programs installed was actually very useful.

Total bullshit,not a single reinstall was done since i bought this windows pc,nor a single malware passes(using microsoft security essential/noscript/malware antibytes).
Not to mention 80% of apps which i use dont have version for mac,so using mac would be totally useless for professional purposes.And it would cause LOST TIME.
