As many other people have said - they've converged to the point where I
switch back and forth between MC on OSx and Premier on Windows 7 faster
than I switch underwear. Biggest issue I run into is hardware. Be
careful what you order on the PC side. Apple basically forces you to
purchase a high end machine, because that's all they offer, so you know
performance will be good. With a PC, you can be tempted to "cheap out"
- because you can - and find yourself with a machine that's not up to
what you need to do. Get comparable hardware, and it won't take you
long at all.
