Default PC vs Mac

So I'm being pressured into getting a Mac at work. It is my choice to go with a PC or a Mac but I worry that it would be a disadvantage if I choose a PC over a Mac since I'm in IT and we plan to let people get Macs if they so choose. Being an IT guy I guess I'm supposed to know how to support a Mac.

I've poked around on a Mac but never got the hang of it. I feel like I'm in a foreign land and I hate it. One time I was supposed to get somebodies printer to work again with their Mac. This incident actually made me hate Macs as I couldn't figure out the problem and the only support I could find was "It should just work, it is a Mac".

I'm told that Macs are supposed to be easy to use, but it hasn't been the case in my limited experience. So for you Mac users, sell me on a Mac. I'm not looking for the "It's easy", "It's better" or "You won't regeret it" answers. I'm looking for actual features and reasons why a Mac will be better for me, an IT guy to use. Keep in mind that I've only worked in windows only shops and have very limited experiences with a Mac.
