“why would you spend a fortune on a Mac when the PC has a much wider range of free software available?”

1. You don’t have to cypher through 5,000 freeware or shareware apps that perform the same function.
2. Most of which are about as helpful in a professional workflow as the backend of a donkey.
3. You run a high risk of malware intrusion. ESPECIALLY with PC freeware. Choose wisely.
4. Developer support is slim to none.

With a Mac those issues are VERY rare.

So happy to have found this page. It is always great to know that there are free alternatives instead of having to pay for apps.

Nice list and I will be sure to give VirtualBox a go.

Good list. But Gimp and NeoOffice, a serious no no. I’m too comfortable with Photoshop and iWork to even think of those.

And you forgot another free application to uninstall applications. The OS X trashbin!

Seashore is a GIMP port without the X11 shenanigans. Quick and fast. I am a NeoOffice user, but the current Open Office 3.0 release candidate is a direct port to OS X. Pretty snappy. NetNewsWire is great for RSS as is Cyberduck for FTP.
