I'm exclusively PC/nix. Heavy use of VM's. My main laptop is a reasonable Thinkpad that has had "some issues" with its ancillary GPU but the core has been solid. I used to dev primarily on an EEE PC running mint, but that model is no longer produced, and was the last one that provided the physical robustness as well as the featureset I wanted. (If they still produced that same model, I'd still be using it, even over the thinkpad.)
My laptop is my "interface", far more often than my tool itself. I have powerful servers for building, VM's for emulating other environments, I want my laptop to simply be something I'm _VERY_ comfortable with and able to mangle as needed, which usually ends in *nix for me, out of sheer pragmatism. (the windows is for software I have to run that forces a degree of compatibility.)
