Well it does matter if you do anything else than webdev..I develop games with Unity which is only available for Windows and Mac... Also building native iOS apps is only possible on one plattform...i would consider Linux otherwise, but no choice. So OSX is the way to go, and i love the tight hardware/software integration which makes the macbook sleep/wake-up etc without any issues, which is always a pain on Linux to get right.
