Windows of today is not the Windows of 10 years ago, and the Apple of today is not the Apple of 10 years ago.
Windows has improved considerably over the past decade, while Apple has shifted away from the professional market. It is realistic to believe that at least some people would switch platforms.

So much stuff is in the cloud these days that a lot of non-developers and non-creatives can probably use any OS these days without too much pain. I switched to Windows from Mac a couple of years ago, and honestly, I don't miss it much. I did have to write off a pile of Mac software purchases, but I found reasonably priced alternatives that work as well. If I get sick of Windows, I can easily transition to something else. Outside of some platform specific games, I can do just about everything I do now on another OS.
