It's not because they were lying, but Windows was changed delibaretly in the wrong direction, and MacOS got much more usable because of open source contributions.

I miss the consistency that I had with Windows 7 (renaming a file anywhere with the F2 key), but those days are over.

With Mac I still don't know what the Mac / option / control / fn / shift keys mean and can't remember keyboard shortcuts, so I'm much more dependent on the touchpad, but at least the touchpad is awesome.
