Buy the computer that runs the software you want to use. I bought my Mac in order to run iLife. I wanted Garage Band, iDvd, iMovie, the iphoto publishing tools, the ability to create slideshow videos with music, cross-dissolves, push ins and easily master dvd's of that, and the entire integrated suite of tools for mastering dvd's of home videos of my daughter. That's what I bought it for. Sure, I could buy tools for the PC that could do the same thing (though not as elegantly). But the software prices alone are more than the mac, and the mac comes with all of that free. If you haven't been running iLife, you haven't been running the main reason most people buy macs. If you wanted to read email and browse the web, well the mac will do that too, but it's not going to be superior to anything you can do on any other system.
