Even if you could find an identical laptop, which I haven't... Installing OSX on a PC defeats a good portion of the reason to have a Mac - the seamless integration of hardware and software. While I realize many PCs can run OSX, I believe one of the keys to the stability of the Macs is simply the small variety of hardware they have to write drivers for. When you start installing OSX on a set of hardware they haven't specifically developed for, you are getting a compromise at best.
I have only had to warranty one product ever but they were phenomenal to deal with, I can complain about absolutely anything, but there isn't much negative to say about my experience with Apple.

the hardware is identical, what seamles integration are you talking about?
having a Mac only to be installing microsoft office on it anyway?
you said it yourself, if the hardware was the EXACT same, and you can install OSX without any "seamless problems" as you say,
you would still buy an apple.
thus, I can call you an idiot, and an apple hipster.
Because you have yet to give one good reason as to why apple should be preferred to PC, yet you keep going on about how it is better.
identical hardware + osx = a mac without the cool looks,
if your argument boils down to "i like the look" then il still call you an idiot
