    Mac vs. PC is old, but here's the speculative future. PCs for the moment are faster, however they are stuck in a 32 bit world and won't be out of it for sure until 2006 or the roll out of their first true 64 bit OS. IBM is uppin' the processor speed of their chip which might be out in 3 ghz 64 bit processors for mac by the end of the summer. Be sure those will probably be available in dual 3 gig. machines or the PC equivalent of 6 gig processor. Dig? And the OS can be ran from command line. So you could theoretically be in SF and login to a machine in NYC and render something out. Macs have had the crap kicked out of them for a long time, now it looks like they are becoming more of a high end workstation than a PC. Scoff if you will, time will tell.
