Not comparable.  

On the Mac there is no easy way to enlarge the menu or scrollbars.  Icon 
text can be increased minimally.

On the Mac, there seem to be two choices:  

1.  lower the resolution to magnify everything, or 
2.  use an on screen magnifier, and not be able to read menus without it.  

Many Mac programs have individual magnifiers for the text, though not the 
menu.


On Windows, everything, including menus and scrollbars, can be magnified in 
the settings.  Can't remember the name of the setting.  As well as many 
programs that have individual magnifiers.

Even so, I prefer the Mac, since I have to learn VoiceOver.
