On "paper"(based on features) OS X has been my first OS of choice 
since the day it was launched... yet I never once tried it, as 
there are no sane hardware options. :(

Since I require a Discrete Graphics Card, "Mac Pro" is the only 
choice available, but it's a workstation class computer, however 
considering I don't have any mission critical requirements for my 
home computer... the 100% price premium is not justified.
