Not only that, people asume that windows is easily upgradable, but it's not. If you buy an OEM laptop , which is the norm, if the manufacturer doesn't provide updated drivers you might end with a bad user experience. I have to ASUS laptops at home (N56VZ and U36SG) and both have hiccups and short freezes using windows 10. The only thing differente between Windows 7 or Windows 8 is that i don't have updated drivers from OEM. This made me realize where buying an expensive mac might payoff in the long run.
