You can use your mac, but i love windows XP, but i hate that a FEW of my games wont work with it, but mac will not work with much at all(unless specialy made for macs) I have a fast muchine so i have no problems with things like crashing unless its a program error not a lack of memory error. Most games can be patched to play with XP. And i am one of thoughs that uses both mac and windows a lot. Although i would take good old win 98 over everything i have seen to date. But mac has a few good thinks but most to me are only things having to do with it being a simpler program so it takes less RAM or proccesor speed. Although unix combatiblty would be good. I have all the stuff i need to mix and make my music and videos that i make from time to time. Keep the mac if you want but windows has proven to be better to me, thats just my opinition

At home my Linux box can also run Win98, MacOS 7.6, MacOS 8, PlayStation, N64, and Commodore64 (still a few classic games I like). They *all* co-habitate nicely as long as there is plenty of RAM available... the only reason I do not develop on my old Mac SE/30 is because the keyboard is broken, and I need more RAM...
