If you haven't already noticed, it is now possible to run Windows on the newer Macs (with Intel Processors). A couple weeks ago, the community managed to produce a program to allow this, and yesterday, Apple officially released a bootloader. People seem to be having some mixed luck with it. PCWorld seems to be having some success with the new (official) bootloader, named BootCamp, but the owners of HackADay.com don't seem to be as lucky, because of a non Apple keyboard.
For more info on the community version, you can look at Cnet's blurb or look at OnMac.net
Now that this is out, MacMinis are a lot more appealing, (Fairly fast, very small formfactor machines)
Edit: Everything has its disadvantages. I wonder why no one has published an attempt at installing Linux instead of Windows yet? I guess BSD is close enough for most.
