Ask HN: Why should I use Mac to develop Rails apps?
I always have a question, why should I use Mac to develop my Rails apps. I used Macbook Pro for several years. Than I move to Ubuntu. I don't see much difference.

I use a Mac for development because its closer to our production environment then a PC would be, and because, for me personally, using *nix on the desktop is painful.
If you prefer to work on Ubuntu, then more power to you. If it didn't bother me, I'd do the same as it would be even closer dev <-> production.
