A very blunt reply would be: A dumbed down one. Really, I think it's hard to dumb down an operating system enough to make it impossible to be productive with it. However, one can try. To my terms a consumer is the exact opposite of a producer. Therefore a consumer platform is obviously a platform for people who consume products, like software, and whatever they've got on iTunes, rather than for those who make it. Now this is a bit awkward, cause you provably can still do productive work on OSX - lots of people do that rather successfully. So it's really hard to put your finger on what exactly is "consumer" about it and since I haven't used OSX more than a couple of hours (didn't like it), I frankly don't really know. Maybe somebody else can elaborate on that?
