Both have their strengths and weaknesses. Before I switched to Mac I thought Mac users were a bunch of whiny little bitches that talked shit about PCs because they have nothing good to say about their own stuff. In general I prefer Mac for most of my development work, but I'd have to say, as a photographer PC's have much better workflow for photography. That's not what everyone else will tell you but 90% of the people who say otherwise haven't done professional photography workflows on both platforms for an extended period of time. Color management on the Mac is fucking retarded if you don't have one of Apple's inferior overpriced displays. What's the point of having a color calibrated monitor if Aperture and Lightroom aren't going to use the fucking thing and fuck up all your colors. It's funny because some shitty ass program that doesn't do any color management gets the colors right, but if you use professional photo software on the mac and don't have a Cinema everything is fucked up. I have to do all my RAW conversion on my Macbook pro just so the photos on my screen look like what is actually being saved to disk. I can open the same physical file in 3 different applications and they all look different. I takes me so much longer to do things on a Mac. Having unix on a Mac for your desktop is great though. Window management is better for the most part but it's a pain in the ass to have to resize your window from the bottom right and then move your window and resize and again and repeat until you get it right . I wish you could just resize from any corner of the window like you can on PC. Stability is about the same on Mac and PC. My PC had slightly better stability I think. Spotlight on the Mac simply rules!!! Although the Finder for file navigation and moving files around is PATHETIC compared to Windows explorer on the PC. But in general, I spend 95% of my time on Mac because most of the time I am developing.
