The Logic Off Topic list

Hm, I don't think PCs suck.
From observing all kinda mailing lists it also seems to be a myth that a Mac
necessarily must be the only choice for pros, compared to a well-configured
PC.
Please note, I said "well-configured"!
This IMO is the major drawback, many PCs seem to need quite some tweaks
because of incompatible hardware and stuff like that - this might even go so
far that you'd have to replace an otherwise working piece of hardware.

Apart from that I don't think that Macs are faster generally.
Not too long ago I had to work on a Mac which is almost similar to my PC
from the specs and it defenitely wasn't any worse or better to work with it.
It only crashed two times, something my PC almost never does - as said, it's
all a matter of configuration and with PCs you just have too many things to
choose from, so softwarecompanies never get the chance to optimize things
for certain important parts of your hardware (mainboards, CPUs, graphic
cards). This might be the reason why Macs are said to be more stable.

Bottom line: If it works, it works.

And then (well, maybe the importance of this is depending on how much pro
you are): You will find a huge amount of nice little apps for Windows to
choose from. Just have a look at my VST plugin folder... costs me nothing
but is still nice - there even are no commercial counterparts for Mac users.

Well, after all I don't really care, if I had a Mac I would be doing similar
things and if I ever would run into a situation where I had to work with my
machine in front of clients I also would have no problem if this was a PC.
