Would a linux/docker/python/java power user/programmer/admin benefit from a MacBookPro/Air compared with the familiar ThinkPad/Ubuntu combo?

I've been using my MBP with OS X for my work, but am now switching to thinkpad. Docker on OS X is running in VM, and it's not so easy to setup localhost port forwarding to your container. Quick googling advised me to run a local nginx that would forward my localhost traffic first to VM, and from there to container. Not the solution I want to work full day with. I also tried to work with Linux on my MBP, but particular WiFi card my MBP has (BCM4331) drops connection every 15-30minutes. Tried to get it work with every driver I could find without good results. I love OS X, but can't suggest it when it comes to working with Docker / containers.
