Welp. If you do full-stack development and need to test webapps on
the primary consumer platforms, a Mac + VMWare/VirtualBox with
Windows is pretty handy. I'm not sure you can get that functionality
in any other way, at least so simply.

And if you travel much, it's *really* hard to beat a MacbookAir  :-)

YMMV,

??? Virtualbox runs lightning fast on Linux, and you can test with native kernel funcionalities VMs with KVM, for 1500eur/dollars wasted to buy a MAC I buy a lightning PC to virtualize the entire universe,  so I miss your point, for developers PC/Linux is hard to beat, full-stack development is a breeze on Linux, and primary platform and native testing and production server is Linux, Mac is very cool if you do professional graphic or music or multimedia production, but for a raw code developer is a waste of money
