I'd gladly pay apple 300 dollars for a copy of OSX I could run on generic PC hardware.
macOS is for me, largely just easier, for most of the things I want to do, it 'just works' - in essence, I'm paying up front, for less effort later - at least thats how I see it anyhow.
Having used the Linux subsystem in windows, I dont think I could do any serious work in it, outside of say developing a linux console application, even basic functionality like ping doesnt work (in the version I have) - its great for lightweight testing, and to have a unix shell that you can use unix tools in (sed, awk, etc) but its not the same thing as a full unix.
While I'm sure that usability of Linux as a Desktop is better than it was a decade ago, at a glance, it doesnt appear to be better enough to replicate the experience I have in macOS.
In the end, I just hope Apple releases better hardware before I need to upgrade.
