No argument here. I am curious though if it has moved from being roughly 50/50. If it has I would expect it to toward Windows, which would shoot down his claim even more.

Agreed, though there are other inconsistencies and broken metaphors in GUIs. >> I was happier when they added things like resizing from any side (and they >> took it further and added proportional resizing as well as resizing from the >> center... both of which I only rarely use but they are sometimes helpful) >> and when they added contextual menus and drag indicators.

Still wish Apple would add more window management features. I use a program called "Breeze" to get the features I want: <http://autumnapps.com/breeze>. Lots of other good options, too. -- Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow superior by attacking the messenger. They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again. <https://youtu.be/H4NW-Cqh308>
