2K1 makes a good point about car PC's. A Windows car PC is generally very stable. It's a different beast altogether.

Of course you can run OSX on a PC if you are tech savvy enough to do the research and figure it out. But it's sort of a parlor trick. Most people who do that already own a PC and don't want to buy the Mac just to run OSX. I'd be willing to bet that they run it mainly just to see if they can but don't use it regularly. But it is easier to run Windows on the Mac than the other way around.

And the other points are right as well - if you want choice, flexibility and options for in car hardware and software, just get a PC.
