The thing that gets me with OS X vs Linux or Windows is that the muscle memory in my hands works well with Windows and Linux shortcuts and window management. I have a MBP circa 2010 and love the hardware but the OS is meh. I really love how I can just close the lid to hibernate and it will stay like that for days. I haven't seen Windows or Linux be able to do that, although Windows on SSD boot up is very fast.
I use vagrant based VM's on Windows and OS X for development. Much better alternative than cygwin or similar. And you can custom build the vagrant VM to match your production environment.
When you are copying files, opening/closing windows, etc. all of that should be done without thinking. When it comes to differences in the OS you should go with what you are most comfortable with. They are all pretty much the same under the hood.
