just what I was going to say. High end graphics are relatively new to PC’s. 8-10 years ago, I still remember one needed the Mac to get into decent rater graphics.
I worked a lot on vector graphics on a PC at the time.

The interesting thing about all these photo agency’s retouching department is that they ALL use Macs for their work. I’m not making any judgemental statements on this, just stating facts.
There’s nothing surprising about that, it’s just an historical thing.

For many years Photoshop was (& in many ways still is) the number one photo manipulation package, & was only available for Mac’s. Even when it was first ported to the PC, the Windows version was slow & unreliable for a long time, especially compared to the Mac version. As a result, Mac’s became the standard platform for that industry. It’s only quite recently that PC’s have started appearing in agencies in any sort of numbers.
