I have been dual booting Ubuntu for awhile now on my Macbook.<p>Unless Apple comes out with something really special this year (early 2011 13&quot; MBP →　late 2013 13&quot; Retina MBP was an impressive upgrade), I am considering building a Linux desktop and a pairing it with a really nice monitor. 1TB SSD is only $400 now, which seems like a really nice deal compared to even last year.<p>I&#x27;ll keep my Macbook around for using Adobe apps, I guess. Other than that I can&#x27;t think of a pressing reason to stay on OSX.
