Funny, I did the reverse migration at work (windows->mac) and I'm still having countless issues around corporate printer drivers, certificates and provisioning that no other windows or Linux machines in the same environment have. And macs are the only machines that cannot have passwords freely changed at will by the user.

Windows 10 has its share of issues but I think it has well above ZERO in quality.

Not sure what you mean here. Can you elaborate?

Sounds like an IT issue. When I have been able to use Macs at work, they involve less IT hassle than Windows machines.
