Mac vs. PC differences to Airport Express?

Are there quality differences in sending music wirelessly to an Apple Airport Express from a Mac vs. a PC.

I have a PC desktop running Windows XP. I stream my music via iTunes to an Apple Airport express, toslinked into my Benchmark DAC-1 (no USB), then analog out to my MF integrated amp.

Would I get better results simply by using a Mac instead of a PC to my Airport Express?

Would adding a USB/toslink converter and going computer to USB converter to DAC be much better, even if I use a cheap USB converter like the Hagman or M-Audio?

Audioengr - I also stream my music via PC iTunes to an Airport Express, toslinked into my Benchmark DAC-1.

1) May I ask what is the reason to use Pace-Car reclocker while Benchmark DAC1 already has UltraLock that claim to reduce jitter to almost nothing?
2) How is your Pace-Car compare to other reclocker devices such as Audio Alchemy DTI, Meridian 518 or Monarchy DIP 24/96?
