I'm CTO of a 15 person start-up in London and I made the decision to go all Mac. This has worked out well for us, except that the CEO insists on using a PC. The only real complaint I'd have is that the MacBook Air seems like a flaky machine compared to all the other Mac hardware.
The plan is that when his PC dies we are going to give him a MacBook and set it up with Mail.app, etc. The only thing he needs that we'll have to install is MacOffice so that he can reliably exchange Microsoft Office format files with the outside world.
He's not a bad guy, he's just really used to his PC, but he's coming around because he's had so much trouble with Vista that it's not funny anymore.

Why don't you virtualize Windows for your CEO on a Mac? Would he even notice the difference?
