Windows or Mac

A friend of mine gave me her 15 inch Powerbook G4 (she got a new smaller one)
and I've been playing with it for the past few days.
It's actually kinda cool..Saw my network immediately, and I was able to load some of my shared folders as volumes within 5 minutes of connecting to the network. Figured out how to install remote desktop to control my big pc and have been playing with that and assorted other things. I kinda like it and will probably use it for reviews and such, as it's only a 550 cpu but not before I get some kind of trojan or anti virus program set up..unless I have no need for them?
It has Tiger installed as well as office 2004. I'm looking into adobe stuff but it only has a 20 gig hard drive so I'd have to upgrade both hard drive and memory to run those efficiently. and that's a bit expensive unless one goes the ebay way.
