Yeah, I mean, just because it executes code slower and has an inferior user interface.....
Just about every piece of cross platform software is nicer on OSX, including common stuff like MS Office and Skype, and then there's all the software that's exclusive to OSX - Sparrow is the best email client, Reeder is the best RSS reader, OmniFocus is the best GTD/ToDo app, and so on. It's funny that the main argument against OSX used to be that there "isn't any software" but now many of the best programs are OSX-exclusive. Of course it doesn't matter that much these days when for most people the operating system is just a way to launch iTunes and a web browser.
You know, about the time people tout Safari as a great web browser, I'm thinking "yeah, credibility is a bit lacking..."
If iTunes and YouTube is the extent of your computing, a Mac will do. If you use your computer to, well, compute, then there are a dozen better options.
I constantly see people switching from Windows to OSX, but the only people I see switching the other way those who need a new laptop but don't want to spend $1200 on a baseline MacBook Pro.
THAT must be why Mac dominates the computer world...
After seeing Windows Phone 7 I thought maybe Microsoft had finally gotten a clue and figured out how to make good stuff, but using Windows 8 has made me pretty sure that they just got lucky that one time.
Uh yeah..
Windows 8 uses the Windows Phone UI - which blows chunks on a computer. Have you ever actually used a Windows based PC?
