I recently left my macbook with the TSA after a frantic sprint through security. I was stuck with a windows 7 PC for the week.
Armed with Putty and a browser, I only missed the touchpad of my macbook. I do most of my work in Jupyter and in vim. It's rather liberating to realize you are not tied to one ecosystem. My point is I thought I would never be productive without my mac but that simply wasn't true.
I suppose I am an edge case though as most of my work is performed on my headless linux workstation.
For those wondering, TSA held on to my macbook which I retrieved over the weekend.
