Which laptop to choose for front-end, macbook or PC?

I go out to a new job, they offered a choice of either a macbook or a regular laptop (I believe that Windows).
Work is the front. Basically layout + js. Photoshop, git and assemblers.
And now the question. Which laptop to choose? Before that, I worked only on Windows, and as they say now - "an experienced PC user" :) That is, on Windows - I can do everything.
On the other hand, I am a fan (don't let the rotten tomatoes fly at me) apple, and I have a lot of experience using iphone and ipad, and quite a bit of macbook (mostly with friends).
I tend to macbook more, because. in addition to the front, I also deal with ui \ ux, and (as it seems to me) developers mostly sit on poppies, and we will swear less with designers because of color rendering, etc.
Thanks for answers.

Macbook:
- work great
- fonts in IDE class
- many desktops (unless, of course, your computer has Windows 10)
- great screen, trackpad, keyboard
- there are always virtual machines for IE
- console in macos is much (!) Cooler than Windows

If you have time to get used to it, then a poppy is better, and until you get used to it, there will be a lot of swearing, but you won’t want to go back to Windows.

One of the differences of a professional is the level of mastery of his tools.
The Mac has its advantages in the form of some programs (for example, Omnigraffle), and other principles of operation, preferences in which are a matter of taste.

Arik absolutely agree if there is a desire and time to get used to it, then take a poppy

Thank you, I think I’ll still choose a macbook (by the way, yes, by Windows I definitely meant w10, I already have it on 2 machines). Of the programs in the poppy, I'm more interested in sketch :)

Windows for developer? -> is this the system where the console still doesn't support utf????
There is, as it were, nothing to even discuss, for developers there is either Linux or Mac.
And for designers-developers (due to software restrictions) only Mac.
