So using native Linux install is much easier.
Too bad that other manufacturers don't build as good hardware as Apple. And too bad Apple hardware is often propiertary, so it might be hard to install Linux to it (not always, though).
My choice has been a separate work computer with two monitors, a mouse, a keyboard and Arch Linux. At home I have two computers: iMac for television and MacBook for upstairs Minecraft computer. Win-win.

After building a bootable linux usb key for a macbook, I will never do this again. It literally felt like I was using a sparc station to boot DOS. not cool. That said, I use linux VMs on my macs all the time. It feels natural, in fact it feels RIGHT. When I was mostly using desktop linux, I still did the bulk of my server side work in VMs under VMWare Workstation. So not much has changed, just that my window manager is made by apple.
