Web Development . . . Get a macbook air 13" $950 at best buy right now, it's occasionally down to $850. (Not non-apple of course). I got a new Dell for a windows specific project that was around $1500 and it's track pad is unusable except for very basic use. I dread using it vs the macbook air. Also if you venture in to Rails or Laravel doing things with VirtualBox and the terminal just don't work properly on windows. Granted with enough trouble shooting and googling you can get them to work . . . but on a mac they just work . . . saving tons of billable hours per year. Don't switch . . . The base model macbook air has more than enough ram/power for web development . . . Add a 24" monitor (asus $150, blue tooth trackpad, and bluetooth keyboard if you need more screen space, $10 thunderbolt to HDMI, amazon prices). Good luck in 2016.
