"Every professional graphics and video application is either available on both Windows and Mac or has a Windows equivalent"

Not quite. Apple do a very heavily used range of professional level editing software (final cut, Logic etc) that is not available on any other platform. Theoretically, changing to another package may be an option, but importing old projects to a new application is not always as straightforward as it would appear as there can be unexpected incompatibilities that may cause the project to render incorrectly. Add to that the fact they may well have years worth of projects, they may be unwilling to risk losing them.
