Hmm. What might it be that you thing about the Mac OS that is so
unpleasant as to characterize with the word "endure".
Well, nearly everything; but most specially, having to go all the way to
the top of the screen to find the menu for the current window (a leftover
from the single-tasking heritage).
Also, they've put their users through amazing amounts of hell; 68k to
power-pc to Intel just on the hardware side, and several flag-day changes
on the software side as well. I wouldn't sign up for any company that
behaved that way.
