I go deep into the Web Crawling niche. Actually, due to some constraint of circumstances, a laptop is needed. What would be more convenient when working in this direction, Mac or a regular laptop with OS LINUX? Who had experience in both. Should I overpay for a MacBook?

Closed due to the fact that it is necessary to reformulate the question so that it was possible to give an objectively correct answer by the participants Vladimir Martyanov , D-side , PashaPash ♦ Mar 29 '16 at 9:02 .

The question gives rise to endless debates and discussions based not on knowledge, but on opinions. To get an answer, rephrase your question so that it can be given an unambiguously correct answer, or delete the question altogether. If the question can be reformulated according to the rules set out in the certificate , edit it .

    So questions place on the toaster, after all. And this question is vaguely suitable for programming. PS on my own - if finances allow, then buy poppy better - there will be less hemorrhoids and comfort, IMHO. - Denis

    I sit 3 years behind poppy - a good commercial UNIX. It would have cost 3 times cheaper - there was no price :) Actually, it is clear why it costs so, all countries have their own idea how much a decent computer should cost, in the US, Apple is focused on the market, this is $ 3000. For us, this is overkill. Do you program? Use any linux-distribution, if you take any human distribution, like ubuntu, so the command line and the process is even more convenient. - cheops
  • Thank you! Yes, I already feel like ubuntu. It’s hard for now in the terminal, but this is how you want to open it) Something is magical in it) - Sokolov.G

To each his own, but it is better not to overpay for poppy and do everything properly for yourself on some cheap laptop
