I switched from Windows to Mac several years ago because of the instability of the Windows OS. That reason alone is good enough to justify the switch, but I much prefer Mac software over Windows. Mac has much less "office/business" software, but much more software to cater to your creative side. The software is almost always available in a trial version that isn't disabled during the trial period, it is updated far more often than Windows software, and it is cheaper much of the time. Several of the programs I am using have free upgrades for life.
