Make the switch, you won't regret it. I went cold turkey and haven't needed any windows programs since I switched a year ago.. The machines literally "just work." I also like that the quality of workmanship is high, and they are aesthetically beautiful. I you like making movies and working with photos, it is seamless... makes anyone look like a pro.. I even made a website with the help of a "dotmac" account.
Even if you still need windows stuff, you can run Office, or even boot up the windows OS itself... (not that I wanted that).. I too haven't had a virus program and also haven't had a virus or any problems of that nature.
Welcome to the Apple nation!
