Near perfect gestures integration, and the touchpad behaves very consistently and reliably system wide (osx has system wide smooth/responsive scrolling for example), and the touchpad hardware itself is just very nice and pleasant to use.

Windows touchpads are usually all over the place in my experience, mostly due to drivers/windows' poor touchpad support. super basic stuff like 2 finger scrolling is often very janky and unreliable on the windows laptops I've used. I had actually ended up switching from windows to linux on my previous laptops because the touchpad even worked better under ubuntu than it did under windows.

I love windows on my desktop PC, but I cannot stand on using windows on a laptop

If one has never used computers like my Lenovo Ideapad y510p ore previously my Asus laptop and had to wrestle with the Synaptic/eLan drivers but rather only ever used a Macbook their entire lives, they would not realize how terribly bad touchpads can be.
