Everything the Mac does, my Windows laptop does (and faster)

I cannot for the life of me find a single appreciable advantage to the Mac AT ALL

after I became accustomed to the Mac quirks compared to Windows, I see NIL advantages to workflow, output, input, colour, speed..

I must say I also do not understand the design rational to the Mac - it is quirky.

monitor/computer on/off switches hidden in an obscure spot (and so "sleek/slimline" you don't find them half the time),

and a VERY VERY slow mouse

in fact, when I first started loading Canon CR2 on the Mac, it did not like it much

the 300-odd CR2's I downloaded to the Mac took 9 minutes, whereas to the windows laptop took 4 minutes. That's quite the difference!

but I found the Mac NON-intuitive actually

and a few things (USB for starters) on the Mac really need improvement in regards FUNCTION over form

And that's not bashing
