At some point I move from PC's to U*IX and I have all the power I want.
Google has the ENTIRE internet in RAM (think about that). It's running on thousands (tens-of-thousands) of PC's running linux.
When I started there were good ($$) reasons to go with a PC. Now I do not claim that there are. But every time I get on a Mac I get frustrated because I cannot access a right-mouse click, see a command prompt, or access more core-level processes the way I can on a PC.
