It does depend on what you throw at them. Then again, the last time I was able to consistently get Linux to crash was when ext3 was still a standalone patch and there was a memory conflict with ALSA somewhere, somehow.

2)  Sure Xcode is better than eclipse.

What isn't? :)

And for that matter, LLVM and Clang really are better than Gnu's compiler collection these days.

3)  Yeah the Apple guys have been complaining about the latest
version of OS X.

ITYM "latest four versions of OS X." No smiley.

4)  [...] Of course if you’re using Win or Mac specific tools…

Therein lies the rub. The list of caveats after "it just works" has been getting longer and longer with each successive release of OS X.

5)  " Lately I run a mix of Debian and Ubuntu and package management
is a pain and only getting worse”  Really!?  The vomit of non-package
management on the mac is better than apt-get?

Yeah. OS X is pretty awful that way.

6)  "I also think Docker is pretty cool, with additional integration
it could replace current package management since everything could be
within the container.”

Docker... is a neat idea but it's nothing new. Like you say, it wants to be BSD jails. There are worse things to want to be when one grows up.
