If MS gets Vista's usability up, and can offer a competitive experience, users may get used to it and stick with the platform... although I seriously find that highly unlikely.
Speak for yourself... I on the other hand switch from mac to pc during my 'college' years and haven't looking back! I am so glad that I did the switch because without my pc experience I could never stay on the same job for the past six years as a graphic designer.
All I ever used during my middle and high school years were mac and nuthing butt mac; hell, even my first computer was a clamshell mac!

Simple fact is Photoshop is designed for Windows first and then ported. So its not a native Mac app and doesn't take advantage of all the technology in OS X.
Why spend on platform that is dying (%5 to 7 users base) just doesn't justify the cost of it. MAC Platform is terminally ill; just doesn't know that yet because of other factor, ie. iFoney so called sales success but yet the iFoney is NOT the best selling mobile device or the best UI either.
When it's all said and done; it's all about economic 101... Majority wins!

Actually maybe Bootcamp is too much hassle for most people. But I've seen Parallels desktop, and it's really slick. Sooner or later someone will work out a way to get Windows applications running seamlessly on Intel Mac, if they haven't already.
It's called a Wintel-PC:)
