Pros
Pro The best user experience OS
Designers, programmers, engenners... they all work in a compact OS where the goal is the easy and intuitive use, integrating in the interface buffers and pipes, drag and drops, shortcuts... Making fast and sometimes fun experience. One week, and you willl know the basics. One moth, for to begin to forget the right click. One year and your productivity increases extremely.
If someone see a experienced user for first time working with agility, he will get lost searching for your movements.

Cons
Con Just smoke, vanishing as your money.
extreme control of software makes users to buy a own product that just cant upgrade hacking and losing warranties. Now with ARM all-in-a-chip an upgrade is simply... impossible. 1500$ / 730 days of life = 2$ a day. that OS is just smoke. The same as his specifications (than makes the same iThing ,to get x2 in all specs each 6 months, even compared with a frog)
Con Most software is closed source
For people who like to use open source tools for their development work, this may be a problem. There's plenty of advantages to open source software, one of which is the ability to tinker with and customize the tools themselves that you are using. Although there's plenty of FOSS tools available for Mac, especially through Homebrew, the number of packages available is much lower than the number of packages available for any Linux distribution.
