I've got both and I can say that besides games there not much you can't run on a mac that you can on a pc and vice versa. My main platform of choice is Linux but I have a Windoze box handy all the time and all of my laptops are Mac. I can get anything done on all three of them any time. There is no such scenario when I say "Oh, I have to use this machine because I can only do this specific task on it" (besides gaming that is which I don't do much of). For example, I use Mozilla for web browsing and its supported on all three platform. I can sync my bookmarks between machines no problem. I would say go with whatever you feel comfortable on. These days you can do pretty much everything on any platform. The only thing you should look into is ease of use. You can burn and edit DVDs on a Mac real easy. You can do the same on a Windows box but just not as easily as on the mac (at least I think not because I've never tried doing it on a Windows box). On the other hand I prefer the Windows Style explorer to Mac's Finder. Again, it's just a matter of your own personal peference.
