Java Web Developer with a passion for Spring and cloud computing. Know a thing or two about AWS. Trying to learn NodeJS lately with the help of TypeScript.
MacBook is not that widely used by developers, principally in other countries besides US and, maybe, Canada, conferences don't really say the reality about it.
This year Stack Overflow Survey says that 47.5% use Windows, the majority of the developers. If they like it or not is another story, but it is the reality around the world, I think. Windows notebooks are widely available and are cheaper than a MacBook with better hardware overall, so many people buy one. The question is Linux vs. Windows, but personally I have so much familiarity with Windows that I prefer it. Many things are cross platform nowadays and for applications who insist in working only on Linux there are Docker and WSL to solve the problem in development environment. :)
