Most all programs on PC are available for Mac (not all, mind you). I am running the Microsoft Office suite on mine (I'd rather not have ANYTHING Microsoft on my computer, but unfortunately their software is the world standard). Unfortunately, you'll probably have to buy/download all of your programs again for Mac compatibility. Unless there's some secret I'm unaware of.

Thankfully compatibility isn't an issue with hardware. Things like cameras, printers, and such don't even require any software installation or driver installation on Macs. You just plug them in and the computer instantly recognizes them an they work. Easy as pie.
