You KNOW those “windows” were made by apple, right?
Windows, icons, mouse, pull-down menus (the so-called WIMP interface) were by apple and appropriated by Msoft, and the brainwashed masses think Windows means....well, what you think, something unrelated and “better” than mac. Even Excel was originally written for the mac.

But to the matter at hand. I run a large iMac with oodles RAM, vRAM, and SSD storage and beaucoup dual cores. I get the best of both world—for things that the Mac is especially good with—graphics—and for programs that do better on Windows (Dragon dictation software, some games) I run BootCamp on the iMac with Windows 10, and I play COD:MWII and III, Halo, and others through Win10 and Battle.net and Steam, and it runs just fine. Yep, more than $1700, but you get what you pay for.

Actually, Xerox created the GUI. Both Apple and MS appropriated it.
