It will ship Intel based laptops for at least a couple more years (at the very least, the models that will already be out at the switch), and will support them for a lot more; so just buy the best intel based once following the switch, and it will last you 4-5 more years. But also: Getting a cloud windows station or an el-cheapo-$500-under-the-desk-when-you-really-need-it Windows machine is probably worth it if you're doing professional work. It would quickly cost much less than the time you lose when rebooting to the the other OS, from my experience.
