in 1984 apple made a game changing decision and have been riding on the back of that the the reputations of the Wizard of Woz and the Cu*t of Jobs ever since

classic Mac vs DOS was a gamechanger

classic mac /PPC mac vs Win 3.11 over dos was still a league ahead

windows post W95 reached the point for the uninterested consumer when it worked out the box like the classic Mac did, if you area 'man in a shed' with an interest in under the lid of computers you variously
1. have a *nix box
2.use a Win/ Mac for your usual office / web / email uses and play with raspberry pi and/or arduino
3.use a Win/ Mac for your usual office / web / email uses and play with Amateur radio ? packet / Amateur TV etc
4. Have retrocomputing interests and depending on your retro interests run win / mac alongside for office / web. email ( some of the later retro computing kit can live on the 'net e.g. the RiscPC era Acorns, the later amigas ridin on the coattails of Mac / workstation tech ( O40 - 060 - ppc)

Global Warming is real. Look, this six inch square of land by an air con unit got hotter....
It's real because the NWS decided to cut maintenance costs by replacing the grass under all their temperature sensors with gravel.
Hundreds of sites showing 2 degrees warmer at the same time can't all be wrong, can they?
