lol. I actually have to agree here...
I have a Macbook and a PC I built myself.
They both crash equally...
But my PC crashes when I'm doing intensive apps and whatnot...
My Mac usually just dies when I'm trying to watch a video or something.
I like both. Both are great.
I think PC is better for a lot of things, and Mac is better for some things...
BUT. They are almost equal now, because everyone is trying to make everything compatible. The only thing you can't run on PC is the Apple specific stuff that Apple makes themselves.
Go with a PC with 2.0Ghz or faster Intel Core 2 Duo, 1GB or more of ram, and aa geforce 8600 or better video card...you won't be disappointed (as long as you don't buy a totally crap brand).
I usually don't condone buying prebuilt computers with a budget that high...(it's cheaper to build your own)....but I doubt you wanna get into that.
