If the hardware were more centrally controlled by Microsoft, I think we'd see better Windows-based systems. Instead, we've got Dell, HP, and seemingly everyone else offering highly modern Windows operating systems with antiquated or otherwise inferior technology. If you have a high-tech* OS, then you should also have a high-tech computer.
*High-tech—technology that is new or superior to any alternative for a given function. High-tech does not necessarily denote high-function or high-feature. For example, two cars have car head units that push 50W to the speakers, have aux inputs, can take CDs, can read MP3s, and has separate treble and bass controls in addition to volume. One was made by JL while the other was made by Jensen. The JL unit is obvious built with superior components, making it high-tech. The Jensen unit is inferior because its technology is of inferior quality. In the case of my Apple-Microsoft discussion, Apple builds the Macintosh computer with superior components to what tends to be used on same-level Dell, HP, or most other Windows-based platforms. You could argue this, but you'd be wrong, as justified by the traditionally longer-lasting Macs.

I can appreciate some "ribbing"! I like to dish it out too!
It obvious what windows 7 "sorta" looks like.......!
Almost like what family you were born into....
Ford or Chevy!
Mac's have a good following but nothing's perfect...Mac or PC!
A lot depends on the the user's ability and understanding of the systems.
Glad your happy with your Mac!
I was raised with PC's and Chevy's......
