Macs crash more? I have never in 4+ years of using a Mac seen a kernel panic (BSOD equivalent). And to be fair, during my XP days, I only once saw a BSOD which was on a home built PC that I built and had not yet finished installing all the drivers. Now Windows 98 would give me a BSOD on a regular basis, the switch to the NT kernel with XP pretty much fixed that.
Now I have had *apps* crash all the time on both OS's. An app crash on 98 would often cause a BSOD but on OS X and XP+, an app crash doesn't bring the whole OS to its knees.
The whole "PC's are cheaper" bit is a little old. Yes, you can get a cheaper PC than you can get a Mac, but if you go for a comparably spec'd PC with comparable software to what comes on the Mac, you actually come out pretty close. To be fair, I don't really use stuff like iMovie or iDVD or GarageBand, but they are pretty powerful apps. On the notebook side of things, I was not able to find a PC notebook with comparable battery life and solid build quality to the MacBook Pro at all. I was going by what I could actually use and try out at the stores, but I'm sorry, those HPs and Dells just feel flimsy and cheap. The Vaios are better, but pricier.
I actually agree with most of the points made by that article. The way Windows 7 is shaping up, it looks to be about equal to OS X in pretty much every area, it is down to preference, or reasonable people who choose both
