<p>@basicspace Mac actually has better compilers than Windows. The only thing about a Mac is that you can’t compile the .NET languages (C/C#/VB/ASP/F#/etc.) on it. But in reality, Python/Perl/Ruby/other recent languages are most common nowadays and most of the .NET languages have become somewhat obsolete (let the fight over that statement begin). Mac is also better because the keyboard is more comfortable and the mousepad is awesome. UI is great and everything is so slick - no annoying Java updates, no popups out of nowhere, or dumb dialog boxes, nothing. Mac + Parallels is the best combination in my eyes. Parallels is so much more convenient than Hackintosh, by the way.</p>
