Nothing, it can run heavy duty graphics and video packages in a very stable manner, perhaps better than a XP machine.
Talking about the new iMac, it can surf the net read email, chat, message, run office apps etc.
The great benefit and I think this comes back to Chris Ts point is that you pull this out of the box, plug it into the wall, plug the internet into it and off you go, a lot like buying a TV pluging it into the wall, pluging in the arial and turning it on. That is what most people want. Some will want more, but most want plug and play.
The mac benefit is it is stable, XP is far more stable than its predecessors, we probably have apple to thank for that, making Microsoft up its game to catch up and move ahead, but I bet our current PC OS would not look the same if apple were not around.
