For me, it's simple. I have a laptop running Windows 7, and my Macbook Pro. I accomplish most tasks using the Mac. I accomplish others using Windows. I do this because I find them easier to manage in Windows. I'm fortunate enough to be able to do both without installing Windows on my Mac, which I have no desire to do. I love my Mac, and for some tasks, I love Windows. Life is about choices, and I'm happy with the ones I've made.
