On the other hand, some programs do close when you close their windows (calculator, system prefs) and in order to actually quit a program you have to use the menu or cmd-Q, which is more time-consuming.)

Those are just a few off the top of my head. Those packages that Microsoft now makes available are focused to one language each (which makes it clumsy to develop in more than one language) and are each more or less neutered: You can't make commercial software with Microsoft's free offerings, for example. Windows did not have free developer's tools until a short time ago.
DELICIOUS LIBRARY FOR WINDOWS FOR FREE
Windows lacks applications like iMovie, Garageband, iPhoto, Aperture, Final Cut Studio.Īpple makes its developer's tools available for free with very few restrictions.
Windows lacks the GUI scripting possibilities that are provided by Automator.
Windows has PowerShell, but most developers I know find it clumsy and inferior to the power that a good bash or zsh environment provides on most UNIX systems, which is available through Mac OS X's Terminal application.
Windows lacks true equivalents for Quicksilver and Spotlight.
