David,
I have to use both PCs and Macs at my workplace but I know what I prefer - my Mac. I have a 17" MacBook Pro that is almost 6 years old, still runs CS5, testing CS6. Starting to SCREAM under a load. I am disappointed that they haven't produced a new 17" as it a good size to plug my EIZO monitor into. I don't think the screens were ever intended for accurate colour work so it's just not a factor. I gave up trying to profile it almost immediately but it's a good size for a second screen while at the limit of portability. Accurate colour requires MUCH better hardware.
I have PCs at home. They're for the kids. I've NEVER seen a PC last as long as a Mac in terms of utility. At my college we even have a PowerMac 8500 running OS9 attached to a Scitex Smartscanner! Museum piece I know. Slow as a wet weekend but they just won't die. Load scans. Go away and make a batch of wine. Beautiful. The PCs that the IT dept give us start grinding to a halt after a couple of years. Registry filling up I am told. Hit start button, go away, make another batch of wine.
Mark.
