Because I was broke

I got my current job thanks to having one. I probably wouldn't have a tech career without hackintoshes being a thing.

In my part of the globe, ignoring iOS development, any computer does the job.

So in such case I would have opted out for a cheap PC built of parts running some Linux distro, or Windows, which has most audio and design tooling as OS X has.

Any computer doesn’t do the job if your job is dependent on the ecosystem.

So iOS development then.
