In capabilities, no - both platforms are equally capable, it just depends on whether any developers have taken advantage of it or not. In GUI conventions and workflow, yes.

Seriously don't fuck it up. A corporation is not going to be happy if all macs are not compatible with their software and they have to buy more stuff to dual boot. A nit picky person is going to flip out when he/she realizes he/she cannot scroll with two fingers, change pages with a swipe etc.

Apple laptops have had two finger scrolling for years (My 2005 iBook has it). And the new laptops have multi finger gestures like swiping to change pages.

Once I got multi-finger gestures, I was no longer able to go without them. You really don't realize how much time you save until you start using them. The only gesture I use frequently is scrolling, but I sometimes use pinch zoom.
