I use windows and Linux. I would make sure my laptop has 8gb ram or more. https://www.sololearn.com/discuss/817701/?ref=app https://www.sololearn.com/discuss/846625/?ref=app

Many programmers recommended Linux, but I've done well with Windows.

Arsenic Windows has command prompt. Aren't command prompt and terminal practically the same thing?

Windows XP was the best! I am NOT recommending windows 10 - too much security things in it, so if you are developing a smart card related software, like I am doing just now, you will have to run your visual studio as administrator to be able to debug it :(

If you want portability and long battery and appealing GUI then go for Mac Otherwise go for Linux In windows you would be missing a great application and that is TERMINAL which is there in Linux and MAC.
