I switched to Mac from Linux. I ran Linux for the last 7 years after ditching microsoft for good. Everything from Redhat to SLack to Gentoo to Ubuntu to Damn Small . What got me to switch was always having to tweak on stuff. Even with all the new great Distros including Ubuntu , I would have to tweak on stuff to get networking to work, X to work , etc and so on. Apt-get sure helps these days to install software, I remember hunting for packages to fix dependency issues for hours sometimes days! I switched because OSX is like a beautifull distro, everything works and its nice to use my computer to be productive right off the bat instead of tweaking on my OS just to make it work!
That being said, I still run Linux on my eeePC 900A netbook. Nothing out there can touch linux when it comes to efficiency .
Get an old P3 , or even P2 system , install Damn Small Linux on it and watch it fly.
