Closed, not at all. The only gripe I see is this:
• Apple's too fascist rules on what is allowed in the App stores. I do understand the regulation, and I do like most of it, as it makes sure I don't get junk (Or at least not pure junk) or malware. I do think they are too aggressive with apps that are close in functionality with their own apps (Such as not allowing sales through apps, without Apple taking 30%, which is *a lot* for ebook stores for instance). Also, they have too strict software regulations on the Mac App store, such as not allowing any open source software.
One could also argue for the fact that you can't install Mac OS X on a non-Apple Machine (At least, not all hardware, see Hackintosh), but then again, why would I want to build a machine that doesn't run 100% stable. I can for sure understand why Apple don't want to develop a gazillion drivers, from a business point of view. And I like their design so much I would buy an Apple machine anyway. Frankly, apart from people that are capable of building their own machine and thus save some 100s$, and hardcore gamers, this is not really a problem.
Other than that, I don't see any problems at all frankly - Only things people complain about, just to complain.
