Question Should I buy a Mac or Windows based computer?

I know there are many biased and emotional arguments over which is better: Mac or Windows. But for practical and logical purposes, I want to know which type of computer you think is better suited for me:

Here are my current preferences (I don't have much Mac knowledge, so a little biased):

Like Windows : cheaper and familiar.
Don't like Windows: style not too good (but not that big a problem)

Like Mac: style (but again, not too important, lol)
Don't like Mac: no right click mouse button on laptop (pretty big problem), pretty expensive.

I want a computer that I can buy at a good price that has:
  • at least 2 GB memory
  • 160 GB Hard Drive
  • is portable/light
  • and fast and easy to use
Which computer would be best to run
  • word processing
  • Excel/similar software
  • PowerPoint/similar
  • Firefox (love it)
  • Photoshop software--need a good computer to run this

I don't play games much on the computer. Music and movies, very seldom. I don’t want to mess with Linux.

So which type of computer should I buy? Window or Mac? and why?
