Discussions about what is better – macOS or Windows – usually flare up again after another Apple presentation. While some users cannot imagine a working day without a MacBook, others see such loyalty to the platform as nothing more than the result of marketing.

Windows was originally created as a universal constructor that must run on thousands of combinations of motherboards and graphics cards. Apple chose another path, locking the system to its own hardware.
