My favorite example is the Unix filesystem: it's clear that Unix filesystem (/etc, /usr, /var, etc.) was thought out; ditto for the OS X filesystem.
Well, sort of. OS X IS Unix, so yes, it uses the same general filesystem layout.
OTOH, back when we had a variety of servers, we had a sign over our server bench: "You are in a twisty maze of different Unixes, all slightly different."
As for your wireless hassles with Win2K, it's widely touted as the most stable windows ever; that was because most hardware didn't work with it :-) It's good as a server OS or corporate workstation (as far as any Windows OS could be called 'good') but considerably less agile as a consumer system.
