Contrast that with the intuitive ease of use that Mac products tend to have out of the box. I found myself having to google simple shit like, "Where is the control panel in windows 8." It was ridiculous. I appreciate their effort to unite the their mobile platform with their PC OS, but damn.. the implementation was lacking.

Mac OS is not really that much more user friendly than Windows- at least til 8. Sit a pc user in front of a mac and there's still quite the learning curve. They may have held claim to that back some years but its just not nearly the case now. Not saying they have slipped per se as much as the competition catching up.
Its really all subjective as I know many would say the same as you about os x, and I'd say Windows is for me.
This of course omits 8- which they are scrambling to restore back to the ease of 7 and integrating 8 features. Am I the only one that felt like 8 was a band aid rush to introduce metro to help initiate people for their new mobile platform.
