I was an apple fanboy, but using the 13" dell xps converted me. It's much lighter, the trackpad is fantastic (although not -quite- as perfect as the macbook), and you're not trapped in apple's ecosystem. Installing debian was relatively easy. I can't recommend the XPS series enough- the 13" with 32gb ram is perfect for any developer.
