This debate goes on since the late 80's, trust me you won't figure out much but here it goes.
I've tried all 3 major platforms Win, Mac and Linux. I've sticked to Mac for the reason that it just won't crash*. Never had issues with updates nor unresponsive applications or blue screens of death. Plus if you practice safety it is almost impossible to get malicious stuff. Working happily ever since.
If you are a serious player alongside with programming go for Win.
If you are a hardcore backend dev go for Linux.
Nothing else to be said. My advice is to try them all (borrow a friend's laptop) if you can.

*except a couple of times but no damage was done
