IF you want security on a budget go OpenBSD (More secure out of the box than linux)
If you want usability and very good security go Linux.
If you want to be a hipster or are a graphics designer go Apple
If you want to play AH go Windows 7....

Almost. If you want best of both worlds, dual boot to windows/linux. Use linux for daily tasks and boot to windows only when you want to play windows games.

you are correct, but not because of dual booting... (its an obvious given that most will prob install ubuntu on a window machine and it will become that), but because one might also go Apple because they want/must develop software for apple devices.

Thats my world.

Macbook Pro ( a truly beautiful machine), and run Windows on a Fusion VM.
Over the last year since I've been developing on the Mac (iPhone/iPad development) I've grown a new appreciation for their hardware and software.  (Well, maybe not for Xcode. ;))
And thats from a life long Windows Developer.  And I've never been accused of being a fashion slave.

If you haven't yet updated to Mountain lion take a good backup of the older version before (if) you do. On my 17" MBP it causes intermittant freezups (the dreaded rotating beachball) which are really annoying. I'm not going to update the rest of my macs for sure.
