I would not be as harsh, he said he also disliked Win8's interface, that's a sign of intelligence ;-) Even Microsoft is backing away from that...
It is hard to switch to a Mac initially, harder than the marketing would have us believe, but it's a worthwhile endeavor - and you can easily run Windoze on one these days! It's much easier for folks who have no previous Windows experience.
There are still features that are lacking in OSX - keyboard shortcuts on dialogs is a glaring and infuriating one, right click "send to email" is another... All of which can be remedied with applescript/automator (I built my own send to email) or aftermarket utilities, but even as a fanboy, I'll admit there's a learning curve - new users won't know that ! Actually more of an 'unlearning' curve....
PS: as I get older myself, I find it's not a matter of being unwilling to learn new OSes, it's a matter of free time and frustration... I don't have time to $%#$% around with software that moves everything in a different place for the sake of looking new and charging an upgrade (MS office ribbon menus anyone, seriously?)
