[QUOTE="Alexis, post: 374037, member: 16911"] As has been mentioned, historically Macs have been the computers of choice for designers and as a result various design tasks are easier on Macs today - font management, colour management and PDFing for example. The operating system is the biggest plus point today. With Windows, you're stuck in a rigid one app per screen, filling the whole area. Designers need to be more fluid in the way they work, constantly swapping between programs, having different areas of the same job visible on screen etc. OS X is designed to work in this way and has features such as Expose (ways of switching windows and displaying programs) which are lacking in the rigid Windows operating system.
