Funny, I used to have both a Windows machine and Mac on my desk, but when Leopard came along, I stopped using the PC and finally took off my desk and added my old MacBook to my MacBook Pro. I could control both of them from the same keyboard and mouse without doing any switching, just drag the mouse off one 23 inch screen and onto the other 23 inch screen seamlessly. No the only OS'es running in the house are OSX and Linux.

We're an all Apple environment (besides the two Linux servers) and everything works so great together as you'd expect it to. AppleTV, Airport Extreme with attached 3TB drive for incremental automatic backups over wifi, plus the three iphones in the household (one without cell service)...

Anyway, it's a ton of fun. I've done all the TSN development from a Mac since it all began in 1988.

I'm just gushing, but it really doesn't mean much for the original poster... heh heh.
