Nah, I know my future with PT is on windows if I want the best experience with it. I proved this on my own imac pro. Windows PT got DOUBLE the AAX plugin instances of OSX, on the very same mac. This is because OSX is constantly fluctuating the speed, and windows with high performance mode kept all cores at their full rated speed at all times. Zero crashes or issues. Even the new mac pro performs better in windows, as OSX has some limitation and keeps fluctuating the MHZ, yet under windows, the cpu is able to get all the needed watts and able to stay at one single contiguous non undulating precise MHZ. On the 8 core NMP windows gives the cpu a full 20 more watts and has noticeably superior performance.

I armed the apollo at 32 buffer and played VI's all the way till the PT meter was at 100% on my imac pro in bootcamp, without one crackle or pop on windows. I have NEVER been able to do that with PT on mac.
Macs are quiet and turnkey but way behind on performance when using OSX. This has been known for over a decade.

If you buy a windows PC from a Daw builder who does all the testing for you of thousands of components and knows exactly what works for rock solid performance, as well as the best way to keep them quiet, your'e golden.

This was actually one of the many reasons I moved to PT from Logic.. a dual platform DAW to keep my options open. Asking for Avid to stop windows support is quite frankly not right at all.
