The Case of the Extra 40ms

Windows definitely improved significantly with Win10 in this regard. But Exposé (or whatever it's called now) invoked via a swipe gesture is fantastic. Swipe up with 4 fingers and I see all windows. Swipe down with 4 and I see all windows of the current app. Combine this with Spotlight to quickly find and open apps/documents.

But, everyone has a different workflow. I can imagine that if you're a heavier shortcuts user, Windows works better.

Expose is pretty good! But the Windows 10 task view [1] (Windows+Tab) does practically the same thing.

Spotlight is great and puts Windows 10's search to shame, although it feels like it has gotten worse in the past few years.
