The Windows experience vs. the Mac.
A Windows pc is like living in a beautiful house that is surrounded by a 20 foot concrete wall with razor wire on the top along with machine gun emplacements, surrounded by a minefield to keep out the zombie hordes that are intent on getting in and causing havoc as well as eating your brains. You are constantly on guard and defense of the zombie hordes. It does become wearying.

A Mac is like living in a beautiful house that has gorgeous view of a lake or mountain. Overall it is a much more peaceful and serene existence. Not perfect, just much nicer.

1. I'm inclined to agree.
I spent some time proper with an iMac today... I can't afford a Mac Pro, but they are overkill and the iMac's power, comparable to my desktop PC (save for a dual core and not a quad core), is nothing to sneeze at either. Not to mention it uses less power...

Easiest dual monitor configuration as well - just plug in a mini-USB/DVI adapter and voila. :D
