You do realize the missing files had nothing to do with the OS, just likely sloppy file management by yours truly. I've worked on Macs before, and I never really liked it very much. Nothing's where it should be! Stop drinking the kool-aid and work on whatever OS you're comfortable with. That's pretty much all that matters, if it works for what you want to do. XP, Vista, Linux, Mac, whatever. They're just tools to help you get things done. I personally like Vista currently. :) Not to mention I got a computer with tons of horsepower, memory, and storage for a fraction of the cost that I would have paid had I "gone Mac". You can buy a quad-core PC these days with like 6GB of ram for under $800. To get a Mac like that you'll easily spend 3x that. That being said, the iPhone rules. Apple did get that right, at least. Now if they'd just double the storage, speed up the processor, quadruple the battery life, improve the camera, uhh and a few other things, it'd be nearly perfect! Happy holidays to you, too! haha!

I think you should consider making the switch. We can plug your backup drives into my machine to see if the files are readable, if not, we can convert them and then you will be set. Possibly your aforementioned annoying scenario would not have been prevented, but overall for the types of technical activities you enjoy doing, I believe you would be noticeably happier doing them on a Mac. Merrrrrry Christmas to you and Dithers! I just confirmed via the Digidesign website that Pro Tools is available for the Mac.
