Always been on Windows - Thought about getting a MacBook Pro, however I want and use 64GB of RAM, so that’s a no go…
Of course deploy to Linux, so always running VMs via VirtualBox.
My Steam, Blizzard & Origin libraries are healthy so not being on Windows would kind of be annoying. GTX 980M works good enough for now.

What do you need 64GB of ram for?
OvermindDL1
Oh I’d use it…
My Desktop has its max of 16 gigs (I need a new motherboard, I have very old hardware in general, ahh money…), and I have 16gigs of swap setup, and I routinely hit my max RAM+Swap of 32gigs just in my normal usage (not to mention how high it tries to get when compiling my C++). I would absolutely adore 64-gigs RAM… >.>

Same, i am on double boot. Interestingly, a lot of my steam games are now playable on linux, most of the one i play a lot being compatible. The drivers are not perfect, but i am hoping to have a Linux only laptop when i can buy one, and keep the desktop “monster” for the few windows.
I would also need a good linux skype client.

Same. At work i have 8 gB and 16gB at home… it is low. When you begin to load Gigabytes of data set in python, run a couple compilation, documentation, video, diagrams, etc…
