At least that's what the management company Soluto claims. This company has carried out a battery of tests that include various tests such as counting the number of system failures, the computer startup time or the sadly famous blue screens in windows, to check which is the most reliable of all in general. In addition, the company has already committed to transferring all this data collected in this analysis to its professional business subscribers on a monthly basis with more and more detailed data, so that they know at all times which team is the best prepared.
At first, said data was supposedly private in order to be kept as information internally by the company but they decided to make them public due to their special and informative nature.
The results come from normal uses over a "long" period of time in real life, and that is where Soluto tells us they are most reliable and can be compared to other tests where teams are subjected to synthetic testing and very exhaustive in the short term.
If we look closely, the model that has been the winner of the comparison has been the thirteen-inch model of the Macbook Pro, however the price difference with the second computer, an Acer Aspire E1-571 is very bulky but we have to think that for That price we get a computer that in addition to running OS X can run windows with widely superior finishes and in the case we are talking about, also superior performance compared to the second.
On the other hand, not all are advantages and that is that the Macbook Pro does not have Windows natively included in the price and neither is the keyboard specifically intended for this system, even so for me these data are nothing more than anecdotal because I still believe that it is the best option not only as a computer to run windows, which is debatable even with empirical data in hand, but also as a portable computer « multipurpose »because, subjectively, OS X still seems to me to be a better system and none of the others analyzed can offer it to me.

Subjectively does OS X still seem like a better system? I do not understand subjectively. The reality is that OBJECTIVELY OS X is a better system than windows. Leaving aside how beautiful it may seem, how easy it may be for you, etc., technically it is a better system. It has a much better resource management than windows, processes, hardware, and is much more polished than windows. This is not subjective, it is so, it is a reality, and many of the things thanks to UNIX. But it is a reality, it is technically superior to windows. Any operating systems engineer can tell you. Windows, apart from the subjective complexity that it may have, is very fragmented, and this makes the computer lose power, also the Windows management of resources, processes, files and others is not as reliable or powerful as that of OS X.
I am not talking about the stability of the system but as a system as a whole. OS X seems better to me because in the time I've been using it it has given me much less problems in different areas, but I also recognize that Windows is a mature system that is more standardized globally and at the hardware level it is the most supported by manufacturers, and that is indisputable in addition to the fact that in certain aspects it makes things easier for you precisely due to its very high compatibility.
Hence, I emphasize the subjectively, because what you think is the panacea to another will not be so "great" and if you believe that your truth is the only valid one of all, then you show that you are not right.
There is no need for an engineer to tell me that the OS X base is better, that is also indisputable. But that doesn't make it the best system for everyone.
You're right, and I don't dispute it either. But windows is where it is by chance of fate, not because it is better in any area. Mac OS X could also have hundreds of games for your system, but, as I say, by chance of fate it has been windows that is there. It also has the support of the manufacturers because OS X is closed, but believe me it would also have their support, but effectively that would make it weak and lose everything it has now, incredible stability with the hardware.
I personally do not recommend windows to anyone, unless it is to play. I guess that's your 5%, the people who play on the computer.
Do not take neither this nor the first comment as a criticism, I just wonder saying "subjectively OS X is better." The reality is that OS X is better. Subjectively you may like it more or less, prefer it or think it is simpler or easier. But the reality is that OS X is better, like linux, at least technically speaking, in terms of stability and simplicity (mac, not linux), and I think that with that they take a large part of everything important that it has to have an operating system.
As I said, Windows is not that bad (it is worse), but in large part it is due to its fragmentation. They should set limits and then it would be a much better system, at all levels, not just for games.
