Wherefore Art Thou OS?
More than Mac, rather KDE. Everything about Vista/Windows 7 screams KDE4. Matthias Ettrich should have gotten the Microsoft Federal Cross of Merit too. And it took the magic .3 to make KDE work, quite similar to the proverbial 3-times-right Microsoft doctrine.
But in reality, as all things go, it's a hybrid fusion casserole (dump the look-a-like conspiracy theories) -- mix everything in, port in Windows tech, run by focus groups and expensively overrated R&D theory guys, stir-up something silly, microwave, reheat, serve and then Service Pack. But all the Tablet functions are pure Microsoft, which is to say, weak.
But regardless of how it looks, it actually RUNS. First Microsoft OS that hasn't CPU dead-zoned on some of my heavy renders. So all this nah-nah Mac vs. Windows fluff is mere noise, OS wars are pointless, each has uses and pros/cons.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
