I've used Macs at school for programming and it was fine (because I could build gcc and g++, unlike on Windows where you're stuck with MingW or VC2003/5/8). But otherwise I prefer XP vastly over Mac (gaming, drawing, writing, homework), and I've heard Asus is a good brand for laptops. :o
As for Vista:To be honest people complained when Mac OS X (and XP) were released because they had a lot more of an over head and incompatibilities with previous operating systems. But I'm sure you're tech savvy enough to know how to install XP.
