My experience too.  And then there is the aesthetic payoff of being to work with the MacOS rather than having to settle for Windows. I know many don't care (or even prefer the Windows aesthetic).  But for some of us this is worth a lot.

I just had a small gig editing with Premiere on Windows, and while it is hard to quantify, there is definitely a dollar value for me to being able to work in OSX (ditto for working in FCP7/X or AVID).

But that is the mystery of personal preference I guess.

On Monday I shipped a 2yo Mac Mini Server, new cost $999, that I sold on eBay for $576. $212/year with very low administrative cost doesn't seem particularly expensive to me.

Macs - you'll be able to sell them in 2-3 years for a very decent amount of money...
