Software for the Mac is actually cheaper or the same price as software for Windows. The problems come with the sheer cost of owning a Mac here atleast, I mean how many people can actually afford a Mac. And while I can find every bit of software for my use on a Mac, what happens when it comes to heavy duty programming, most systems are geared towards the x86 Wintel, not to mention, that you can literally forget about games or be prepared to wait for a LONG time while the rest of the world has finished playing it thrice. If I can get enough money or access to a Mac Mini, maybe I'll switch. I've already fallen in love with the Mac once before, but falling in love with it is the same as falling in love with a Hollywood megastar. You know you've got next to a zero chance of actually being with one.
