In my opinion:

Windows 10 has a lot of the ugly shit that Windows XP had, except it breaks with a lot less finality. It also has many of the elegant bits of 10.6, except with a lot less polish. To me, Windows looks to be about 10 years behind OS X, which in this case is good, because OS X is rapidly becoming a shitpile.

And holy crap that whole thing where Mac and Windows hardware were at parity? Yeah, those days are over. The Windoze box is four times the bruiser of a high-end Mac Pro at half the cost. Pro Tools sees it as 16 4.5 GHz cores and I had it built for me, tested for a week and shipped out bespoke for under $4k.
