Mac or PC for editing?

PC.

Even despite the fact that you can get much more performance out of the same budget (or even spending less!), the performance of CS6 on a finely-tuned PC with nVidia graphics is unrivaled. And if you really, really want to... you can always install OSX on your PC to use FCPX. Not to mention the fact that you can use Edius, Vegas, etc as well if you chose to. While there was certainly a time that owning a Mac was much more "freeing" and allowed you to have the best non-AVID NLE software available... that time is long gone.
 
After looking at the "blue screen of death" one too many times on an important project, I defected to Apple and never looked back.

Most BSODs under Windows XP were indicative of a hardware issue. Macs get them too, they just shut off instead of going to blue and displaying error information.

Windows 7 is more like OSX in that it just shuts down when there's a failure of this sort.
