If you wish to remain in the dark ages of computing, then, by all means, touch devices and OSes aren't for you.

Okay, here's another "feature" that OSX doesn't possess:

How about, not being able to run the millions of PC applications that have been written for Windows? And, no, a roundabout method with a virtual machine, isn't the same as running windows straight from a PC.

Have you ever used VMWare Fusion?

Unity mode is great. I can run Windows programs without even having to know they are Windows programs. They look and act like Mac programs. Or I can run full screen Windows and not know I am on a Mac. Or I can run Windows in a window. My choice. Oh, and I can bounce back and forth between those modes. I have never had a hardware compatibility issue using any Windows or Mac compatible hardware. I have the best of both worlds.

There is one HUGE thing that Windows PCs can’t do...run Mac programs in any way, shape or form.
