Is it easier to program pretty much all of the types of programming offered here on a Macintosh (iMac, MacBook Pro etc.) or a Windows PC?
I've been programming on my pc for about a month or so i recently switched to a macbook air and I found it just nice to use, whenever i use windows it leaves me feeling irritated when it crashes for the umpteenth time and how it takes ages to start up but whenever i use a mac it makes me feel just happy.
Araneae is a Windows-only text editor tool that enriches your coding and programming experience on a Windows based PC. Operating on “Windows Only” is very unique because every program that is available for Windows is also available for other platforms like Mac and Linux also, and Araneae is one of a kind in this regard. I have programmed on both windows and mac. I would say mac is amazing for web due to a lot of built in tools. But since I decided to swap gears and move into c I have come back to windows. And I personally would say it just depends on your preference. I also think ever since windows added in the whole dev mode a few years ago.
This is much like asking if people prefer making their coffee as a pour over or with a french press. Folks will have differing opinions based on their experiences, their familiarity, their mentor's opinions, etc. And they can have these varying opinions because both Windows and Mac are perfectly suitable programming machines.
In my opinion, Mac is preferable. It seems like for the past few years they have been on a step ahead of Windows in terms of innovation and usability, but I hold no grudge to someone who says the same about Windows. I haven't used Windows for the past few years, nor have I stayed up to date with their systems.
Do your research, be informed and make a decision based on what you think. Find some friends who have both and see if they'll let you toy around with theirs.
If you want to program iOS apps, then Mac is the only way to go. A lot of designers & Ruby on Rails programs like the applications they find available on OS X.
In terms of Ruby on Rails the easiest way to program with any backend language is to use a separate VM per project and that removes a lot of the issues with trying to install things on your host OS.
Mac os x install software without admin password. I personally use both Mac and Windows but usually Windows for programming. I have a dedicated testing server so I never need to install backend software on my PC, otherwise use James' suggestion of a VM.
It depends. If you want to use C#/ASP.NET the best operating system would be Windows. If you want to build applications for iPhone, iPad then Mac is the best option.
If you want to build applications using Java, then it does not matter, both will be OK.
+1 I agree - NOT sure why but every time I edit my comments it turns into an answer.

That's kinda mysterious. It doesn't seem to happen to me, but then again, I'd a mod so my edit permissions are different. I'd email support at [email protected] so they can check out the issue.
Best mac photo editing software. I purchased an iMac, it'll arrive in about a week or less. :D
I got my Mac yesterday, I love it because I picked out some of my own parts. I'm going to put in my own RAM and external hard drive, the only thing I don't like is the keyboard, but I can hook-up a different keyboard to it.
I would recommend you get little snitch. https://gdsite682.weebly.com/steven-pinker-angels-audiobook-download-torrent.html. Its awesome!
