It's a lot harder to find studio sessions outside of the hip hop genre (U2, and Butch Vig all I could find) but I'm sure if you were able to find them you would see something similar.......an iMac, Mac Pro, or Macbook Pro controlling the final product.

And one visit to Apple's Final Cut Studio's website would render your graphics argument moot.
Professionals use whatever gets the job done. This is often what's familiar to them. Professionally I use a Core i7 running XP Pro 64-bit and Sony Vegas Pro 64-bit, and I don't have the slightest problem with stability or compatibility that these Mac-tards keep referring to. The machine has never needed a reboot, and it's very very fast.

Actually, I've had many PC's through the years and I've never had issues with any of them, being able to get my work done quickly and efficiently.

I also don't have any issues with the interface or 'ease of use'.

And I've spent plenty of time using Mac's, in fact I'm posting this from a Mac. But I'll take a Core i7 Windows XP machine any day of the week.
