MAC vs PC for a developer?
skwiddor: Linux Box running proxmox virtualisation
if you're serious about web developing you'll be wanting to test your sites in multiple versions of I.E, Firefox & Webkit & Opera. That means running Windows at some point, virtualisation is your best way. I run ProxMox virtualisation http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Main_Page  which runs a Linux in OpenVZ for running the HTTPD stack and various 2k/XPs etc in Qemu.But the answer shoudl really be : the one that runs the tools you use in the best possible way.I run Plan9 for my text editing requirements and I say it was the best I've come across. so YMMV
