I've used both, but I hadn't used a Mac in years. I wanted a
Mac for the exact same reasons as you did. I bought one about
2 months ago and LOVE IT. I do need XP for work, so I have
Parallels with Windows XP on it. That's the only reason I use
XP. I got a good deal (teacher discount) on Final Cut Express
HD, no software is as good as this.
I went Mac and never looked back.
