These days, a Mac is just another unix box with a different gui. I've
bought mine primarily for video editing/processing, which is an area
where Linux is weak, where up to now I've had to use Windows. There was
a good deal on Final Cut that, in the end, tipped the scales. Macs are
more expensive, but the design and build quality are amazing.
