I work with a MAC and I have always own an IBM.  My reccommendation: 
Both machines have virtually the same abilities.  However, the MAC,
IMHO, is the easier format for younger children.  That is why I highly
support it for the primary and elementary levels.  And with the hybrid
CDroms that have increased by leaps and bounds.  You have the equal
choice of software for both OSs.  Besides with the way technology
grows.  As your child gets older you may wish to upgrade, then switch to
an IBM.  I feel its worth knowing both systems.

It's all personal opinion and nothing more.
