In our lab we have just about half Windows and half Mac's.  Students tend
to gravitate to machines based on what software is available, not what
breed the platform happens to be.  We have Excel and Word running on both
equally well so wordprocessing and spreadsheets are well covered.
Even if the software is not a true Windows program I sent it up so
students can point and click to activate what programs they need.  Then it
makes no difference to them.  The reason we have both (and I highly recommend
this) is
totally related to the variety of software available.  There are programs
I can only get for Windows and in the past the Mac was easier.  I can
still get more power for the dollar with Windows type computers and if I
had to begin from scratch - well, I don't know exactly what I would do.
Most likely purchase a few of each.
