From what I've heard, Vista is just a copycat version of Mac OS X with all the problems of Windows. It took Microsoft over 5 years to come up with Vista, and in that much time several new versions of OS X have been released, AND they have a new version, Leopard, due out this spring! Just about all of Vista's new features have been available on OS X for years now. They may look different and go by different names, but they are basically the same thing. Microsoft has always been behind in the game and will be even further behind this spring when Apple releases Leopard. Vista may be pretty and spiffy, but it's still crash-prone, virus-prone, still uses the registry and .dll files, etc. I just don't think it's worth it. And with the Intel Macs you can run Windows XP (don't know about Vista yet) on them in case you have a certain Windows program you need to use that you can't run on OS X. If you're in the market for a new computer and can wait a few more months, I'd wait for Leopard to come out and get a Mac with it already installed; it's going to be awesome.

I'm mostly a Linux and Windows user myself, but compaired to Vista, Mac OS X Tiger is definitely far better. There is absolutely no question. Performance, stability, features, security, everything. It's just more expensive.

OS X all the way and with Leopard coming out soon its gonna beat Vista hands down. And now that macs have intel chips you can run windows and Os X through parallels. Get a Mac... their the future!!!

If you kinda like mac better, go with mac definately!!
OS X is a beautiful operating system, very stable, rave reviews.
I been playing with Vista for a few months and it's ok. Mac is more polished, stable, and mature.
So it really depends on which programs you will run. Photoshop is (like many programs) just as good on a mac, same price and everything.
I've used Windows since Windows 286 for work. So what. It works.
Macs are elegant, clean and stable. Go mac.

No competition!.....go with a Mac. It's just smooth and simple. I use a PC for some of the business apps at my office and it's depressing.
Go with Tiger (or wait a bit for leopard).

I like windows because you are able to send ur files to any 1 because 90% of the world has windows. It doen't matter. If u like 1 from the other its ur choice no one if forcing u go get anythings. I like Windows by the way.
