At work we have a bunch of Windows and Mac laptops. The Windows laptops are constantly needing something. Either hardware repair or having software issues of various types (for some reason, often the wifi drivers). The Macs... never once have we had a problem with any of them. For me, I just got fed up with Windows and Windows laptops. The bloat. Windows itself (I dropped off at Windows 8, I just hated it). I had used every Windows version since 3.1. Both at home and work I use Linux for all my server needs, but for my home base, macOS is fine. I never upgrade it until it hits 10.x.4, and by that point, it's rock solid. I use a product called FastX for reconnectable SSH sessions to my home and work Linux machines, where I do everything in GNU Emacs, even email. I've been using nmh + MH-E + some filtering software I wrote myself. I've accumulated 30+ years of Emacs tweaks and that environment is as about as productive as I can make it, for what I do. My son recently wanted to play Windows games (Steam) on his Mac, so we installed Windows 10 via bootcamp. I was impressed with how easy it was to install and how fast Windows was on his new 2016 Macbook. Compared to all the Windows laptops out there, I think Macbooks are an incredible deal.
