  Well, boot Win11 24H2 on a nice 13th gen i7, and you have a great
experience.  That's what Microsoft supports.  Linux is the solution
for others, but they often overlook it.

In what way is booting that a better experience than booting macOS Sequoia 15.1.1 on an M3 Mac?
Be specific (for once).

 

They depend on
Microsoft and Adobe to develop applications.

  Nothing.

So you have no actual answer.
You can't produce a single example of a complex thing that can't be done on a Mac.
Got it.

 

I actually enjoyed
seeing the free trial of M$ Office for Mac.  Showed it to my mom,
who's always used Office for Winblows.  The Mac version of Office is
actually great software.  And I imagine Adobe's stuff is pretty great
on it, and the movie editing, etc.  But for a typical PC user, posting
on Usenet everyday, macOS is a quirky choice.

Again with the "quirky".

  I was blown away by Finder.  Really amusing, how little effort Apple's
programmers put in.

As opposed to what?
What specifically do you not like about the Finder?
And how out-of-date is your experience of it; Snow Leopard?

 

I support computer users for a living, and what I can tell you is that
while I technically have quite a few clients who use Macs, I almost
never see them anymore.

They just use their computers, doofus.

  I'm saying if they're having problems with a computer, they should
learn how to correct it, instead of being a sissy and getting tech
support.

Do you say the same thing about people who have problems with their cars, or home appliances?
