I have an Macbook pro with the new intel chips.  I need to run some
windows based software so I installed "parallels" which allows native
running of other operating systems within a Mac window.  It runs almost
flawlessly (some mouse gliches).  I also run Linux on occasion under
paralles and i have run all three at the same time - things do slow up
in that case.

Security in general is better on the Mac - but some of the latest
certificate-based systems are still a bit buggy.
