I would purchase the Windows version.

The Windows forum has many more users than the Mac forum so, when you have questions there is a better chance of receiving an accurate response in a timely manner in the Windows forum than in the Mac forum.

The Windows version usually introduces annual update and features six months prior to the same update and features being released in the Mac version.

As mentioned earlier, in addition to Band-in-a-Box the Windows version also includes RealBand.

Obviously the situation is different when a user is already wedded to a specific operating system. In your case, you don't have that limitation so the choice is yours.
