As someone who has been on MBP's for the last 7 years I recently jumped ship for 15" Dell XPS with Windows 10 and I am happy I did. However, that is because to me Win10 is now way more appealing than OSX. I hadn't updated OSX since Mavericks because there were exactly 0 new features that interested me. I don't have an iPhone/iPad/iEtc and I don't use the built-in OSX apps and it honestly seems like those two thing are all that Apple has cared about with OSX in recent years.
It wasn't easy to find a laptop with hardware that is acceptable coming from an MBP, it was a short list. But OS wise, Windows 10.1607 is, for me, way better than OSX at this point. IMO OSX feels dated, and toy-like compared to what Win10 has become. I was a heavy terminal user in OSX, like many dev's it was the *nix part of OSX that got me. But now with both the updated command prompt and WSL I don't miss the terminal, period. Also, Win10 virtual desktops already work better than OSX!
- EugeneOZ 10y agoOne month ago I bought gaming PC with Windows 10 for my son and I helped him to install some programs and games. After 3 years of exclusive usage of OS X, my first impression of modern Windows 10 was "hm, it looks great even on 4K monitor (UI scaled well), takes few seconds to load and works fine - maybe I should try it again". Only annoying thing I found is extreme level of espionage in OS and fact that sometimes Windows will install updates and reboot even if I don't want it.
