Half the guys I know keep a bash file and all their vi configs on the cloud so they can move them over.
Honestly, when I did windows dev ~2008-2012 it was friggin -easy-. It literally "just worked". Way more so than osx obliterating it's compiler every update.

With Windows you basically have to clone an existing install leaving behind a bunch of junk. With Windows you are stuck using ADK and cannot include software without building complicated packages where you have to monitor all the changes made to the registry and file system. This process on Windows takes a lot of time vs Linux which includes it by default. There is a reason that Tor recommends Tails and not Windows as well for privacy and ephemeral operating systems.
