Well- for windows apps, clearly windows would be better. My bad - I should have been more specific.

I do mostly server side Java development for deployment on unix servers. I use the same codebase on several linux boxes and my mac with no problem. All the stuff I run on linux will compile on the mac anyway, and all the build tools run correctly.

If I was developing apps for windows, and I didn't need stuff like access to the sound system or 3D card, I would probably stick to Java development on the mac, with extensive QA on windows.

So - I agree with you whole heartedly, although depending on your definition of real-time - I may question the sanity on running that on Windows. The Blue Screen of Death is many things, but real time, it is not. :-)
