??? Virtualbox runs lightning fast on Linux, and you can test with native 
kernel funcionalities VMs with KVM, for 1500eur/dollars wasted to buy a MAC 
I buy a lightning PC to virtualize the entire universe,  so I miss your 
point, for developers PC/Linux is hard to beat, full-stack development is a 
breeze on Linux, and primary platform and native testing and production 
server is Linux, Mac is very cool if you do professional graphic or music 
or multimedia production, but for a raw code developer is a waste of money
