It’s a really straightforward decision. - Do you want/need a Mac?
- Can you afford the one you want? People agonize over this way too much. I did a few months ago. My trusty 2013 MBP finally was wearing out. I needed a new MBP and the new 16in has rolled back some of the previously objectionable changes (keyboard, restored escape key). I could afford it (but whew I’ll admit that was a big number). I only work on MacOS. I have a Windows desktop for games but despite the hardware being high quality, I can’t ever be productive on a Windows environment. You just have to decide if you need it and buy it. |

I have that same feeling.
At Uni we had to alternate between coding in SSH on Redhat machines for one class, and writing .NET programs in other classes.
While both are workable, something just felt foreign about development or DB management on Windows (even with great tools like Visual Studio).
I attribute this to knowing more about the inner workings of *nix compared to Windows, where things such as registry, services, etc. felt more like black-box magic compared to having config files, cron jobs, daemons, etc.
