You're rant is simply off base. You can get under the hood just as much with Macs, it's just that you almost never really need to.

You should look into the Hackintosh community, there's quite a bit of enthusiast interest in MacOS, largely due to its many sterling qualities.

One way to look at it is it's like Linux, except with a great user interface, and actual commercial software available. :-)

Remember, a lot of the great open source software out there will build and run on Macs with no problem - not Windows though.
