I bought a MBP in April this year. It was my first Mac. I am quite happy with it, the retina screen & touchpad are really good, but I don't think my next one will be a MBP.
Windows has now the Windows Linux Subsystem and it is actually quite good for Linux development on Windows. (I manually updated it to 16.04). I don't need Cygwin anymore and it compiles to ELF format. I don't know if Microsoft will keep it but if the goal is to attract developers who deploy on Linux, it might attract all the ones that cannot migrate to Linux due to proprietary apps or don't want to tweak their system.
I recently tried to use Linux (Ubuntu 16.04 and 16.10) as my primary desktop (once again I think I tried every year since year 2000) but still failed having 2 screens supported with 2 graphic cards, bluetooth headset being connected and sound through HDMI.
There's no killer app for me on the Mac (I don't use GarageBand or final cut pro), maybe I miss the viewer that is nice for pdf pages re-ordering or pdf merging (could not find free equivalent on Windows).
