I'm sure there is no difference today. I have a friend who runs a smaller ad Agency, everybody is on a Mac. I told him that PCs can do all that as well at a lower price Point. His reply was that the Mac is so deeply entrenched it is impossible to change now. People would just mope about the differences instead of getting work done. In the end that was more important than shave something off the administrative budget.
This off course isn't data, but it is fairly representative of a prevailing attitude in those businesses.
