Apart from the excellent time machine backup software and the beautiful design, i see little advantage in MAc. With a windows pc you can easily upgrade. Especially the harddisk might need more upgrades than you think. My 640GB drive was full after one year. You can also easily add backup drives. In addition you get far more capable hardware for the same or a lower price when you buy a PC, which is a big argument if you develop from raw, run Lightroom and Photoshop simultanously or want to create panorama or HDR images. In addition you can choose and exchange your own monintor (I use Eizo s2231w). Viruses are hardly a problem with windows, if you keep your software and operatig system alwys current and use a good anti virsus software. I nevver had any virus related problems with my PC. Finally windows 7 is really excellent.
