MILEAGE MAY VARY, as there are myths that Macs never crash and that PC's always do. I have not had a crash on my editing PC in 6-7 years, and the Mac I use with Final Cut Pro crashes every single time I use it. I do not begrudge Macs, nor do I say that PC's are "better", as in I know how to fix a PC and how everything runs. I have no clue what a MAC is doing, so I can['t fix it or know how the OS is doing anything, so I cannot diagnose the problem.
Ignorance of what a computer can and should do are the cause of the misconceptions for both PC and MAC.
It all comes down to preference.
Don't forget Sony Vegas Video, as many people swear by it as an equal editing tool. Similarly, the Grass Valley, formerly Canopus EDIUS is a contender for the few that use it.
There's a saying I like to use whenever the debate over software for editing comes up... "It's the artist, not the brush that counts". I cannot imagine DaVinci and Picasso arguing over whose brush is "better". No one cares what they used to create their art.
