>developers are a very small group among "enterprise" customers

I am a developer. And for the last three workplaces we used Windows laptops, even if we targeted Kubernetes\Linux.

Some business people had Macs, though.



Out of curiosity: were you working in startups or enterprise/outsourcing companies in the previous jobs where they gave you Windows laptops?


No startups, no outsourcing, software companies with their own products.


Thanks for the answer.

I've seen this at companies that started in the 90s or earlier. Newer ones are mostly Macs.
