I love reading success stories like this. A fully self contained Linux based environment sounds pretty sweet. It’s calling me like the Green Goblin mask…
We moved to Linux as the default for new dev hires at 37signals a while back. Our setup flow complexity collapsed. It's just so much easier to automate everything on top of Linux than on Mac. And for our work, Linux is also just way faster since we use Docker for DBs etc.
