If I got this right, he built a desktop PC? How is he then comparing his custom-built PC to the Macbook Pro, which is a laptop. Maybe he should have saved the pain of finding the replacement and bought the Mac Pro?

Step one was the PC. For about 6 months I sshed to the PC from my MacBook and used iTerm's tmux integration to do development on that machine. This is phase 2 using that machine without the MacBook. Eventually I'd like to get a non-Apple laptop (if the experiment sticks), but one step at a time.
