If your laptop is that critical you should have a spare on hand. My advice would be to get that windows laptop now, so you can dip a toe in without the pressure of switching completely. If it’s a secondary device it also doesn’t need to be as expensive, just good enough to get the basics done. E.g. you’re probably fine with i5, 8gb ram, 256 gb ssd, which in windows land means you can get an ultrabook form factor for around $1000. If you haven’t used windows in a while, get a 2-in-1 touch screen model to get the full difference in experience windows has on offer. It’s interesting to have a machine that can switch from full windowed development environment to ipad and back again with a flip of the lid. (Note that I said interesting, not flawless.)
