Q-6
Does Windows 10 include so many fonts that usually we don’t encounter font availability issue?
I haven't incurred any of those issues, especially if you use any office or adobe products, in fact I'd say there may be too many fonts
I know not all will agree and this is subjective, but I still maintain that the feel and polish of macOS is a bit cleaner and perhaps more elegant and polished. I just "like" macOS more for some reason (I do use w10 routinely on my gaming machine)
Please take no offense if you disagree - just one mans opinion.
What I would honestly really like is the ability to use macOS on non Apple hardware, at least on the laptop side of things. I already do that on desktop (building a new Hack right now actually - my 4th)

After going through Win10 and various Linux flavours, this is my conclusion too. OSX is the best there is at this time.
I am waiting for a OSX compatible wi-fi card from eBay for my T470. Even if I get most of OSX working on that (don't really care about iMessage and other fluff), I will be happy.
My future strategy to remain in OSX is to build a DIY Hackintosh desktop (golden builds only) for power and buy the cheapest Apple laptop hardware (refers or last gen models) for mobility
That is one possible plans. They don’t offer the best hardware. No need to invest a lot on their MBP line anymore. If you want more than 16GB, get a Hachintosh desktop.
One things windows has are laptops i can afford for what i use them for which is mostly web browsing, word processing, and the occasional light game. I picked up a Asus Zenbook, it's mostly plastic but fairly durable, has an acceptable IPS panel with 1080p, 8th gen intel I5 8250 cpu, 8 gigs of ram, upgradable to 32, also has a slot for a M2 SSD, and 1 tb Hard drive. And a Fingerprint scanner ! $450. compare that to the ancient MacBook air at double to cost
No denying that at all! Unless you need a Mac (for Mac specific software), there is no justifying Apple's dumb hardware.
I still get inconsistent user experiences about 4K scaling. Some mentioned that there is no 4K UI and font scaling issues under Mac OS but under Windows and Linux, there are. Others said the opposite especially when connecting and disconnecting external monitor of different resolutions.
The main Mac OS specific application I use is Keynote.

if you need to use Keynote, then get a mac.
If you can use Powerpoint, buy a PC, and try it. There's only so much research you can do and you'll not really find out until you buy and try. Most places offer at least a 14 day return period.
I have used Powerpoint before. It is not as good as Keynote. Perhaps my skills in PowerPoint is not good enough.
[doublepost=1528198466][/doublepost]I have built PC many years ago. Recently, I tried to build a Hackintosh to stay away from Apple's control. Among all the components I bought, at least three turned out to be defective or DOA. One product was even sent to me with a wrong model inside. It wasn't like that before the most-people-have-a-computer era.
