The key benefit to OSX is that it's FreeBSD at its core -- a well proven OS.

And although there have been theoretical vulnerabilities found, all were immediately patched by Apple, and no virus, worm, spyware or other malware has affected OSX in the 5+ years it's been out there.

17% of major corporations have Macs in place. IT people generally badmouth Macs because they only require 20% of the support of Wintel machines. IOW, keeping Windows the dominant system is nothing more than pragmatic job security.
