Mac OS X just works until one day the UI locks up and App store updates hang, and the computer becomes an unusable brick because nothing can be read from the disk after the non-replaceable SSD because it died (happened to me two weeks ago). Everything just works until the awful built in media management applications corrupts your media collection/destroys their metadata. Everything just works till their terrible disk format results in an undetectable error that slowly corrupts your files until even most of your backups have been quietly corrupted. Everything just works till the UI for resolution becomes permanently scrambled and doesn't allow you to switch away from Fischer Price mode on the retina MacBook you use for development. Using Apple computers has thoroughly disabused me of the notion that there is anything in the world that "just works" for anything but the most hilariously trivial use cases. It's a flawed platform just like all the others.
