At the office, we have 2 MBPs with Mac OS X & 1 laptop with Ubuntu. We're about to buy a server for local storage & testing, but we're debating on it's operating system.
We're developing in RoR, use the server for local testing & then use Heroku as production site. Current tradeoff: Mac Pro Server (waiting for the new august edition) vs a Linux (distro undecided) machine.
Can someone give advice? Thanks..
To be perfectly honest I always want my test/dev boxes to be the same architecture and software stack as production.
