Well, the only reason I can think of why you should want to do that is
the same reason why I stick with Apple pc's: I simply like the
production tools of Logic and Mainstage because they let me produce
music in a more intuitive way, with less boring effort ;-))  I don't
know about you but for me there are some other music software I like
that isn't available in Widows.

I am also thinking about all the extra audio plugins you would have to
buy in order to reach the same level in sound design and to me this
equation ends up more expensive if using a Windows only pc, compared
to the all-in-one virtual studio solution Logic Studio that runs on
Apple hardware.
