I believe it depends on what you need your computer for.
For instance if all a person really does is basic office tasks such as creating spreadsheets and documents a Mac works perfect. The same goes for music and video development as well as web and obviously OS X software development. Database work can also be accomplish on Macs, with the exception of a few databases such as Microsoft SQL Server or Microsoft Access.
On the other hand if you want to create Windows software you obviously should be using Windows. But again you can use a virtual machine on a Mac and run Windows inside of it. Granted this won't work great for game development but most other development this works fine.
For my needs OS X works perfectly but I can easily see it not working for everybody. It all depends on what you do for a job.
