The range of software actually isn't that big, and with the coming of the new Intel-Macs, a lot of software isn't even there yet. I don't know enough about your working style, but if you haven't used a Mac before, I see no reason to start with that now. With Common Music, Lilypond, Pd, Csound, Supercollider, every programming languange you want, and with the ability, to run the occasional foreign software through Wine, Linux is a very good platform for Composers IMO.
