Mac: Lower Clockspeed, continiously controlled running smoothly (but not controlled by you) and tell them things like: If you are not that savy, you’ll probably: can learn to hate Windows, But if you are tech-savy, You might begin to love the way Mac handles things

(This is about the intel based Mac though, I haven’t got much to dive into the new engine)

Lately, with more windows only apps and features, I tend to switch to Windows, but as always, if not to tech savy, you can learn to hate Windows and grow to appreciate the Mac.
