- high quality hardware - nice extra features if you have an iphone like iMessage - can develop apps for android and iOS without janketyness - can develop for Linux/Windows/Mac - some don't play many games anyway on a dev laptop I think it's nice to have the development flexibility. i like being able to start coding anything possible because you never know when an idea may need a quick prototype. If I do need macOS, don't want to jerk around with hackintosh in a VM.
