At which point, why would you buy a mac? For the hardware? It is all commodity HW at that point so not really all that much different other than the case. Moreover, you have to buy both MacOS and Windows, further increasing the costs.

If the whole point of running a Mac is that they "just work" and don't require the same maintenance efforts as Windows, why would you want to have to maintain both the MacOS AND Windows?
