The PC side of Apple has never had great engineering, they just limited what you could use to eliminate having to write code to work with everything. Back when they were on the original Mac and Motorola chips the Amiga and ST would emulate a Mac and run the Apple OS faster than the Mac could natively.

Even now it is difficult to have a desktop Mac the way you want it. You want that next gen video card? Too bad.

The Macbooks are well done I will have to say.

Some people seem to like the GUI better but I think that depends on what you grew up with.

I can't imagine having an actual Mac computer and being so limited in the software available.

There are some nice apps for flying available on the iPad only so they have a lead there.
