  It's less of a walled garden than OSX, which isn't even virtualisable.

    It actually can be virtualized, but it isn't as easy as Windows. I'd argue that neither of them should be used in government though.

      I'd posit that the primary reason it's not as "easy" to virtualize macOS is because Virtualbox, VMWare, et al haven't poured enormous sums of money into optimizing for macOS performance, as they have Windows.

  There are 1.5 billion active Windows PCs, including laptops in the world. [1] There are also 1.5 billion active Apple devices including Macs and tablets, and 2.5 billion active Google Android devices. Given Linux and other computing devices to add to the above. Microsoft really has an only (at best!) a 25% share of the world of computing devices. One can split hairs about being the monopoly leader in their niche, but the thing is... PCs and Macs aren’t the main form of computing anymore. It would be hard to argue that Microsoft should be broken up because Windows is the future of the market and is illegally being exploited to sell more Azure, or Xboxes, or Microsoft Office, etc. [1] https://www.zdnet.com/article/bigger-than-windows-bigger-than-ios-google-now-has-2-5-billion-active-android-devices-after-10-years/ https://www.zdnet.com/article/bigger-than-windows-bigger-tha...
