I'll go for a PC also, but I'm having problems with debugging applications on windows on my samsung devices, so I installed a Linux system on a visrtual box and connected it via virtual USB and it works. Thus with a PC you can get affordable 8GB or more of memory and a 2 cores that can handle VMs. With a Mac the debugging doesn't need any extra steps, but with the same price of the Mac you can get a more powerful PC.
