Approximately 6 months ago I needed to upgrade my development notebook and faced a dilemma which one to buy. As a for a long time developer working primarily with Microsoft operating systems, frameworks and development environments the obvious choice was “a Windows notebook”. But which one? I really like Lenovo’s W Series, but they moved a touchpad off center in the latest 15″ models and it was a huge turn off for me. And then a friend of mine recommended to get a MacBook Pro. What? A Mac?
After few more conversations I finally decided to buy one. After developing on it for almost half-a-year I’m ready to share my experience with it.
