Sell you a broken Product; Charge you to fix it...
Fair enough. However, Mac OS isn't really relevant in my universe. Never used it, probably never will. And the onus here regarding Microsoft...IS on Microsoft. Quality seems to escape their formula these days. You remember the 80/20 rule, right? Today it's more like 40/60. As the developers are 'cheaping' their way through testing efforts. I can't begin to express how disgusted I feel toward them; because of the parade of their preventable errors, which I have to wade through to get anything done.
You've articulated a frustration that resonates deeply with many long-time Windows users. The shift you describe—from a tool designed to solve problems efficiently to a platform that seems to create problems in service of design trends—is real, and it's not just nostalgia talking.
