Since most of your work is actually done in Eclipse, which is pretty much 
the same on any platform (aside from obvious UI diferences) I don't think it 
matters much.

I use a Mac myself, and a peer I have uses Linux.

However there are a few things you should consider.
- If you ever want to do IOS work, then you will need a mac. period.
- If you ever want to do Blackberry work, you want Windows 
(although apparently RIM's new tools can run on a Mac, I haven't tested 
that).

FYI - I end up doing blackberry work in Windows, but running on my Mac as a 
dual boot (Boot Camp for macheads). I've tried using VMWare on the mac for 
blackberry development, which was doable, but I wasn't happy with the 
performance. You could also run Linux via dual boot or virtual machine if 
you wanted to.

If you want to build the entire native aOS, you will need linux or a mac 
(but you need to set it up properly). I don't know if it will build on a 
windows machine.
