I wonder ... if you had have tried that mac when it was 1st released & had the option to use that or the pc of the time, I wonder which one you'd have found easier & more fun to use. Keeping in mind mac was always far ahead re: graphics, compared to windows up until the early part of the century. It has a lot to do with the way the mac processor works. It is/was/is much more efficient in regards to compiling multiple queries & computations over a period than pc. The processors use different technology. The mac meets one on one & keeps a consistent performance (in comparison.) Also most of the macs are floating-point processors which means more accurate calculations by the processor which is important for graphics compared to averaged calculations by the pc processors. This was certainly true in the past. Very important for accuracy of hi-fidel audio processing & ultra-important for video processing.
