I built a high end machine a few years ago. Quad core. 6gb RAM, fastest gpu available at the time. All quality parts, in excess of $1500. Installed Win 7.
I barely ever used it. I have a late 2009 MacBook that I use daily. About 6 months ago, I decided to turn my desktop into a Hackintosh. Put OS X on it.
Ever since, I use the desktop at least as much as my laptop now. I've determined it's the OS that's more important than hardware. Even with high end hardware, I can't work with Windows. Put Mac OS on the very same hardware and it becomes a powerhouse.
