It wasn't a process that was using all of the cpu, it was probably one of the services.
I'd kind of wondered if a reboot would do the trick, but I'm definitely not surprised that a reboot and some updates fixed the glitch. The folks in the company that push the updates probably pushed a bad one that caused the issue, then either rolled it back or pushed a new one to fix the old one.

Meh, that's BS. I've got a bunch of Apple stuff, phone, tablet, TV, and my wife has an Apple laptop. My next PC will be a MAC. My current PC is at least 8 years old and running Win 7. Years ago, I upgraded from Windows 7 Home to Windows 7 Premium. My PC is still humming along nicely. I've been waiting for it to die, so I can get a MAC, but it won't die or slow down or start acting weird/wonky. THere's absolutely NOTHING wrong with Windows.

It's also much, MUCH easier for Apple since their OS is basically running on locked down hardware.
