Hi All,

First of all , the quality control on PC motherboards is all over the map.

Just try getting ProTools working under Windows on a Dell, SONY, Toshiba ,
etc. The results are really weird to be sure.

Run the same Hardware from AVID on a Mac Tower and the results are pretty
consistent.  The MAC OS is a heck of a good deal more stable on a MAC vs. PC
hardware platform.

My Mac Pro Lap top runs Windows XP from VMWare Fusion and it boots up
Windows a good deal quicker.

Linux on my Mac Pro seems pretty stable and runs fast. I use my old laptops
for Linux and they are better than Windows XP/ Win 7.

Draw your own conclusions, I use my MAC more often these days due to
reliability.
