I’ve used Mac for years, but have just moved across to PC for one main reason - the specs I needed would have cost about $20k for an iMac Pro, but I built a PC that out performs the iMac Pro for just $7.5k. So the first thing is, Mac’s are much more expensive than PCs, and once you’ve selected a spec, it’s very difficult and expensive to upgrade.
Second point is, Mac’s are far easier to use than PC’s. Turn on a Mac, everything just works and the video editing software is actually very intuitive to use, but there’s a practical limit on how far you can take the software before you need to jump over to ‘professional’ video editing suites.
So there’s pros and cons to both - if you have the coin for a Mac an don’t have any plans to turn professional within the next few years, I’d get a Mac. Definitely get FCPX - for what you pay, it’s day and night from iMovie and very easy to use.
