Wait, do you not remember the System 8/Copland thing (which set the pattern for Longhorn/Vista a decade beforehand), the acqui-hires for Rosetta, iTunes and more?!? Apple has herded cats at about the same level as Microsoft the whole way, just had infusions of new blood (acolytes even) into the Steve Jobs/Jony Ive Reality Distortion Field. You might even argue that they're historically worse, but look relatively better: they had lower ambitions and set out for fewer features (trying to do them well), but that takes a lower level of expertise in engineering.
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
That is, in fact, what was required.
Maybe now is the time when we should stop and talk about whether computers can get too turned on. Because that would explain a few things.
thats why i dont like macs thats why
Not sure why it took Apple so long but they're finally matching Microsoft for code quality.

K3n.
And all that without being repeatedly sued for monopolistic business practices.
I'd say world domination is a pretty ambitious goal.
Since the death of St Steven of Cupertino Apple have lost the recipe.
I see someone has finally made a real-time version of xmelt.
