Just a general comment on MAC pc/laptop reliability. I always see a bunch of people in the Apple store taking **** to the genius bar because they are having some sort of issue. So Apple computers are certainly prone to problems. I don't have any statistical evidence how this compares to PCs, but no matter in what environment you're running, issues will arise and it's nothing that a simple reboot can usually fix.
Well to be quite honest, unless you have a defective Mac, it takes a real moron to mess up their computer.
As for the OP, you sound like you just need to get used to what you're doing. You have muscle memory from years of using a PC that wants you to do something different. So it'll just take a bit of time until you "unlearn" your previous behaviour.
When it comes to crashing, because I use both on a daily basis (and am very computer savvy), my macbook has not crashed in 2 years whereas my PC crashes at least once per week. Granted, I push my PC harder and hotter as I use it for gaming (although I do monitor my temps).
I've said it many many times, for most people, your choice of computer does not matter. Both will be able to do what you need if you get a sufficiently powerful computer to meet the demands of the applications you use.
Personal preference in the end.
