If you're doing any kind of software development then a Mac is the way to go. A Mac gives you a proper Unix machine with access to real world consumer level apps. eg: Word, Pages, Numbers, Excel, Photoshop, etc.
If not, then who cares ? If you want to live in the third world land of Linux on the desktop then go for it.
Linux is great for production server environments, not so great as an all round consumer desktop OS.
