I find it annoying that people switch OS's and compare them based on feel and "features"... If anything at least say OSX is architecturally better than windows... or get a Chromebook and Croton. This way you can use the terminal and vim, and still get amazing features thru ChromeOS

I think it's interesting. It implies that the important software packages are now available everywhere. If there were key applications you needed, you probably wouldn't switch.

Yeah but shitty screens. The closest I got to programming nirvana was my Samsung Tab S 10.5. Glorious terminal in Super Amoled glory. It pains me to use any desktop panel. It's just old at this point, a little low and small.

I would probably go ipad if I was interested in rekindling my Apple relationship (which I'm not since they continue to screw users it seems)

There was the chrome pixel, with high-res display, but that died off.
