An opinion article at APCMag: "The focus of Snow Leopard is on core upgrades, not shiny new features. A bedrock focused update that delivers a streamlined, enhanced OS X. Stability. Efficiency. A "new generation of core technologies." All this is about raising the floor on the entire system. Multi-core optimization, support for 16TB RAM (yes, Terabytes), and a language to allow developers to tap the power of the graphics processor are just a few of the key upgrades. But you can't lift the floor and let people walk around where the floor used to be all at the same time. Not without leaving holes for a potential rising damp problem further down the track."

Windows versions (the last ones) have lasted way longer than OS X versions, and very few applications REQUIRE Vista, so you can still run 2k/XP with no problems.
Also you don't have to trash your whole computer if Microsoft decides that you need something a little better than you currently have.
And even if they did a Windows machine doesn't cost as much.
