OS X has major Thunderbolt issues. OS X crashes nearly every time I put it to sleep with a Thunderbolt monitor connected (10.9 through 10.11), daisy chained Apple monitors aren't detected, Thunderbolt monitors aren't aways detected when plugged in (as in they don't turn on), waking up a machine after disconnecting Thunderbolt monitors sometimes results in a black screen where the OS thinks the monitors are connected.
Windows 10 on the same MBP, has none of these issues. OS X crashes significantly more often than any Windows machine I've used in the last 5 years (Windows 7-10). Apple used to brag about how OS X was more stable than Windows, but I think that Microsoft's need to make Windows compatible with so much hardware and software has actually resulted in a more robust and harder to crash OS.
- dingo_bat 11y agoI'm not much of a mac user. I've never seen an OS crash since windows 7 arrived. Neither on windows (7, 8, 10) or on OSX. Are scenarios where the entire operating system crashes really occurring in significant numbers?
