Good luck when you switch to Apple. I could, for instance, easily list, oh, I don't know, five -- maybe even six -- aspects of the OS that I don't like. That's like your article, but with two more.
"And boy, what's the deal with only being able to re-size a window via the bottom right corner, huh? Why is OS X even a thing anymore?"
I'm sure the grass always seems greener, but as a guy who uses (gasp) both operating systems regularly at work, I can tell you that they both have irksome features. They also do some things really, really well. I cannot speak for Win8, but Windows7 is an excellent platform. For every little problem like not being able to copy error codes, there's a little extra polish that makes up for it. Same with OS X. There are some things fundamental to the workflow of using Apple's operating system that I absolutely can not stand.. However, they also execute other things beautifully.
I get that it's popular to hate on Microsoft, and a good way to drum up some traffic, but seriously, this is all pretty petty and trivial.
