I have 5 Macs and 13 PCs and I'd have to say PCs all the way. Don't get me wrong, I love my macs (only if running OS X or Linux PPC) but I can live without one - unlike my PCs - (btw, I have one SUN box as well - PoS Ultra 30) I do a bit of photo/video/audio and to be completely honest I prefer doing it on a PC. I like doing quick stuff on a Mac - but things that I want to be really picky about I will do on a PC. Plus I'm not a huge fan of DVD-R(W) and prefer +R(W) so all that work goes on my PCs. I do like many, many things about OS X - but those just don't cut it for me. You say Macs are faster for PHOTOSHOP - I say "It ain't true." I use Photoshop on a Dual 1.42 Mac and on many PCs ranging from a Dual P!!! 933 to a Dual 2.8 Xeon - Dollar for Dollar I'll bet on my x86 gear. Hell, Feels like PShop is faster even on a single P4 2.66 than Dual 1.25 Mac. The windows side just needs some apps that compare to iTunes, iMovie (WMM is close), Konfabulator (Litestep is getting better), Final Cut Pro, and iDVD.

BTW - Apple needs to price agressively - wtf they're doing now I don't know - but for the hardware I got I felt cheated.
