But Mac pretty much requires specific, ultra-expensive, not very repairable or upgradable devices.
Yeah but it's a trade off; if you want to tinker go Linux, if you want an OS that works really well with the hardware it was designed for go Mac. Not sure why anyone would use windows honestly.
Those that a) use whatever comes preinstalled on the computer (and Windows is on the affordable ones); b) need software that's not available on Linux. But yea, I would say that most people I know wouldn't even notice a switch to Linux. There are distros that "just work".
My MacBook Air and Mac Mini may not be internally upgradeable, but they didn't cost any more than comparable Windows machines.
