@SrPx, I totally agree to a point, however for a comb-shaped creator like me, I would like to do my web development, and my design/creative work on the same OS and hardware, and I do, but my hardware options are limited and expensive. If I didn't do web development, I would easily choose windows at this point in my career. Problem solved. However I do develop for the web, and the hoops one has to jump through to develop even the simplest of modern apps on Windows are many and brutal, and not worth the headaches IMO. MS is trying to improve it, but if companies like Serif were to take the risk of adopting Linux, it could potentially beat MS to web development (and creative OS) nirvana, so to your point I work on the weak and costly Apple hardware. I would prefer to have great hardware and a thin OS that does everything I do... Apple is overpriced and underpowered, and Windows is crap for the web... so I'm left either owning two machines and a KVM, or paying at least 2x for outdated hardware for the foreseeable future.
