Perhaps not DDs explicitly, but there are videos out there at *Linux*
conferences where some developer opens their Mac laptop and proceeds to
switch to the VM running $LINUX_DISTRIBUTION (probably Red Hat).

There were plenty of blog posts years ago from "Linux" devs in love with
their Macbook. It was a rather embarrassing thing to observe.
