I've been using a MacBook for my work for years now (not voluntarily). I've always had a Windows desktop as my main machine. Your experience is completely different from mine. I've found that it's easy to use the MacBook, so long as I want to do things the way Apple dictates. With Windows, I can discover and tweak my own processes to work the way I want to. With Apple I feel entirely boxed in.

All that being said, I think the whole discussion can get ridiculous. It shouldn't bother anyone one way or the other which product someone prefers, and most of the time, it sounds like a Pepsi vs Coke argument to me.

I always hear this argument “windows is more customizable” what do I really need to customize about my os to edit videos more efficiently how does customize ability lead to a smoother workflow. I use my mac for actual work and it pulls so far ahead of any windows computer I’ve owned in my life in terms of fluidity and stability hands down.
