Well, IMHO, the MAC's CPU has more processing power to devote to CPU intensive applications, such as graphics - in fact, it is the main reason why MAC's are the chosen computer system for graphic artists, illustrators, 3D modelers, etc.
How this pertains to music applications, as that they are as CPU intensive programs as graphic applications. Faster, better performance, less loss of data streams...
Midi has great support on OSX. Apple has built in a framework that resembles, and even surpasses OMS - and it is all built into the system!
Cubase - Available for the MAC! Song creation is significantly faster in Cubase SX 3.01, thanks to enhanced warping and arrangement features. With the Warp Tool, you can drag the tempo grid of your song to accommodate audio directly on the main window. Cubase SX has enhanced its Hitpoints, a way to automatically identify audio rhythms and let you slice up audio you’ve recorded. With Hitpoints, you can easily manipulate beat markers, quantize audio, quantize other tracks to a groove you’ve pulled from an audio track, and align MIDI events and audio beats to that groove’s rhythm. Using a new Play Order track, which lets you draw in basic song structures to make quick arrangements, it’s exceedingly easy to change the structure of the overall mix.

ive tried on both, and the pc is better, since the hardware for a mac is rather limited.. and i hate the interfaces, i would also advise on pc based audio hardware, since the realtime editting is a lot more smooth.
