mac vs pc (non-fanboy answers)

[robin at digininja.org (Robin Wood)]

I've been looking at getting a new laptop for a while and I'm trying
to compare a PC and a Mac. I know that a lot of security people are
moving to Macs and I'd like to know why. For half the price, or less,
I can get an high spec PC so why are people moving? Is it OSX, is it
availability of tools, hardware quality or what?

I'm particularly looking at the Macbook Pros, probably the 15".

I know this will probably start a fanboy fight but I've got to ask.
