Thanks Eric, I may well go that route. I've run Parallel before - but I found all the switching, and space it took up a bit much. One reason for choosing Linux for me would be too properly integrate my development environment with how I work on the server. I rather like the idea of running my entire laptop based environment in dockers and mirroring how my servers work. That way I get to learn technology i can actually deploy rather than working so hard to translate what I work on to something that the server can run and then deploy at some reasonable scale. Still the descriptions of laptop environments running on docker are a bit on the experimental side for now...
