I for one do not regard MacOSX parity as an asymptote toward which to
strive.  If I wanted a Mac, I'd buy a Mac.

If the goal was simply to clone Mac behavior, that would represent the
acquisition of typically small Mac market share.  I would rather
implement something new and interesting enough to take away an
equivalent percentage of Windows market share, which is a heck of a lot
larger user population.
