As a user of both, professionally, there is nothing that a Mac offers over a cheap PC anymore other than cosmetics. They both run the same x86 hardware, however the Windows OS is still more widely excepted currently. You can get better graphics, audio, and speed out of a PC simply due to a wider variety of components, and at a cheaper price.

Apples OS is just a linux port based on BSD, so if you want that on a PC, you can have it. Only again, on slightly cheaper hardware. In fact of you want you can install any of Apples OS's on a PC as well if you like. So if the form and factor of the Apple is what you want then buy it, if the form and factor of another brand is what you want, then buy that.
