    Windows and Macs may be able to run the same design software and browsers and music players and such, but those things aren't in isolation. The OS and its GUI/UX matter. The things you have to do to protect your privacy matter. The ease of buying it in the first place matters too. I sure as hell don't want to deal with making sure my sound card is compatible with my motherboard, upgrading various processors to find they don't work with my software, or buying software that won't run because I have a slightly different version of the OS.

    I've been strictly Mac for about 5 years now (not that I'm an Apple slave, I have an Android phone) but every couple of months I have to help someone on a Windows machine do something and it just reaffirms my choice.

    • as you say strictly mac for 5 years so you haven't used windows 7 so cannot comment reallyfadein11
    • I know I find my mom's Win7 machine irritating on many levels. And buying it was no picnic.i_monk
