The retina screen alone would cost $400+ for a windows. And the Mac is much more of a pro tool when doing creative work. My windows machines always crash on me.

- stjohnswarts 5y agoI haven't had windows crash on me when I wasn't doing driver stuff in literally years. Something is wrong with your hardware, unless you're talking about the software that you are using on windows. If those crash it's not windows fault it's just bad programming.
- ricardobeat 5y agoIf that’s the case you are the lucky one. It’s surely not a coincidence that Windows software suffers from “bad programming” 50x more often. There is simply no contest in reliability, you’re always expecting a new problem with windows - just yesterday, in fact, an OS update disabled my network card and I had to reinstall everything to “fix” it. You can use a Mac for years without even knowing what a driver is.
- watermelon0 5y agoI use both macOS and Windows daily, and I think I saw like one BSOD in the last year, and quite a lot more kernel panics on macOS. Regarding the software I use, I wouldn't say that it's any more stable on macOS than on Windows.
- jonathantf2 5y agoWorking in a company where I deal with equal amount of Macs an Windows, we spend a lot more time dealing with Mac issues that simply cannot be solved due to either hardware or software limitations Apple have put in place. Windows is very solid and we rarely see issues with it on decent hardware which still costs 1/2 of what a lower spec Mac equivalent.
