>> The endless updates, reboots, and god knows what it's doing in the background which consumes resources...

Really? Windows has its share of hair pulling annoyances to be sure, but endless might be overstating it.

In my experience since switching, I find that resource consumption is comparable to OSX. I get that this is anecdotal, but I leave my main machines on 24-7, and I basically only reboot when an update forces me to, which sometimes is once a week (when there are frequent updates), but most of the time it is for stretches longer than two weeks.
