Anyone use linux (via Virtualbox) on a MBP? I really miss Linux but I really do not wanna fuck around with hardware/drivers anymore. And eOS is just gorgeous.
I'm sure you can run Linux without a virtual machine of any kind on a Mac. With the right hardware (which MBP of some generation just might be) there's no need to fuck around; everything just works (and, unlike Windows, you can count on pulling a hard drive from one machine and putting into another). I have installed Ubuntu 14.04 on a white 2008 MacBook and it just worked.
Indeed. Macs are pretty popular for running Linux, since they have a very small variety of hardware that's mostly supported just fine, don't have locked bootloaders or any weird stuff like that (I'm looking at you, Sony), and offer pretty good hardware and price.
I've got an Arch image on my MBP, it's just as simple to setup as it sounds, just load the iso and follow the installation steps based on the distro. You may need to install some virtualbox drivers, but that's not difficult.
I run my main Linux development system under VMWare on OSX (on an rMBP) and it is awesome. I love it. Sometimes I forget OSX is even there.
I have done this in the past and had no problems with it, besides it felt a bit slow.
