And from personaly experience, i would recommend them for everything apart from gaming (as limited games are available). Plus the mac OS (9 and OS X) isnt as bad as windows people think and you get used to the one click mouse and apple key etc etc.
Although they arnt rock solid stable as people think though - ive managed to have a mac os9 go down on me a number of times. But i would agree that it was a once in a blue moon moment
On OSX, if you use a PC mouse with two or three buttons and a scroll wheel, then the right mouse button and scroll wheel actually function as they would on a Windows PC..

As for reliability. Yes, OS 9 was terrible. OSX is excellent.
