You can get very usable machines quite for cheap in the used market, and basically use a dedicated machine for a task, without compromising on the workflow or going against the grain. Like having a Thinkpad just for Vim or CLI stuff, a Mac for A/V and graphic design, and a Windows machine for everything 3d. Owning and using three laptops sounds crazy, especially if you travel a lot, but you could still launch Chrome on a Thinkpad and do most of the stuff that falls outside of your main task, you could get away with just carrying one for a trip! Why wait for the holy grail if you could just treat your laptops as dedicated hardware appliances optimized for each task?
