i think it would be interesting to see the age demographic of people picking either one
if I were still 16, yeah, probably using a hackintosh would be worth my effort, because I don't have the money for an MBP. I would probably also think 3 monitors is cool as hell.
now that i'm 25, I don't feel like dealing with *the* ideal hardware configuration for a hackintosh, not to mention a potential headache every time apple releases an OSX update. I also prefer my home office being aesthetically pleasing (single 24" monitor and MBP) over it looking like some crap out of revenge of the nerds.
also a lot of people touting all these souped up PC laptops seem to pick laptops based on how fast a processor / how fast a gfx card can I cram into it, a.k.a. "how well can i play games on it", which again is stereotypical of the younger crowd.
