It is interesting that this is the most Linux sided Linux vs OSX discussion I've seen on HN.

I personally just got a iMac which has boosted my productivity compared to working on a Macbook. Could have been the effect of cleaning my desk though.

I despise OS X for many reasons, and I have for years. However, I used to be pretty silent on discussions like these. My issues were (mostly) subjective and personal.

With the release of Yosemite, I'm now vocal about my dislike of OS X. It is objectively an inferior OS.

I believe many HN readers are in the same boat now. There have been quite a few threads about the decline in quality control for OS X/iOS in the last few years.
