I don't agree - a user's workflow is much more streamlined on a Mac.

Take the simple shit called labels. From opening up a new finder window, I can find what document I'm working on within a matter of seconds, nomatter how deep just from following labels.

Take automator - without knowing any programming language I can create a custom workflow or take one of the hundreds of premade ones to one unlimited actions on my OS

Take applescript - I can create shit easy scripts to open any file I edited on 31 January, 1984 or create custom menus for current projects (an excellent feature)

Take smart folders - without moving files around or manually creating alisases, I can group all my current documents in one folder, I can stick any php file edited in the last week in a single folder etc etc

The Mac isn't more powerful than Windows, it just makes your life easier.


--edit
and for me anyway, easier is more productive
