You might find macs more stable, but thats probably because you are used to them. Windows biggest problem is the amount of people that target windows systems, I.E hackers.
something like 95% of the world uses windows, therefore 99% of hackers write virusses for windows, and other scripts that will excecute programs from IE. Your reletivly safe on a MAC because there is such a small userbase!
When using a PC you probably will be more comfortable with LINUX since linux is based on UNIX and MAC OS is also based on UNIX (thats why you have the same kind of root based directory trees)
For me, windows XP, I've literally never had any problems, never a crash, never needed to press reset, never an unresponsive program that either didn't rescue it's self or couldn't be terminated.
For windows users XP is a dream come true.
