There are two downsides to Macs - the price, and the lack of easy to use 3D programming software (ala DBPro/GSDK). C4 and Torque is a real pain to use and Unity is just a RAD system. C4 has a few nasty bugs in the Mac version too.

2D is fine, because of BlitzMax...

Aside from that, the lack of need to buy AV and defag software saves bit of money.

You also dont really need to buy a web authoring program as it comes with an iMac.

Installing programs is easy - just drag a package to where you want, as opposed o having to click to mass of options.
