I tend to suggest that people stick to what they are familiar with although if you know your way around windows then you'll have little trouble navigating a mac too.
I've been producing Saabnet.com on macs since it started back in 1988 on a Mac SE with a 20MB hard drive (although the actual web server serving what I create on the mac is a Red Hat Linux box that's been exceptionally reliable).
I used to have a Windows XP system on my desktop too, but earlier this year I took it down and put it in the closet because I really wasn't using it for much and when I tried to do some video editing on it, it failed miserably. Now I have two MacBooks on my desktop (I inherited one from my wife when she upgraded earlier this year).
The new Rage game from ID is the only thing that may get me to put the XP back on my desk.
