I'd like to, but I really don't want to spend the money on a nice MAC again. This business is expensive enough as it is.
I bought one back in 2005, one of those Mac Pro's with the clear handles and dual CPU's, and that nice 17" monitor that matched. It was like 3.5K back then.
And did it improve the quality of my work?, NO
Did I work faster?, NO
Did I make more money? NO
But the option does sound nice.

You can get a Mac mini from 499 $. It is reasonable machine includes the MacOS and the full development IDE XCode (not a lite version). So it isnt too expensive.

Exactly. I bought a Mac Mini. Works great for that kind of stuff.
I already have monitors, etc.
I did add a Keyboard/Mouse/Monitor switch.
I also added TeamViewer to allow remote control.
I don't use it much, but it is there.

My Mac Mini was working great with XCode until I upgraded to the latest version of the MacOS... and now it's incredibly *slow*.

Don't do that.
One Mac Mini per MacOS.

I suppose I can shop for that, or get a slightly used one.
Good Idea!

If you're planning on making a living iOS apps, you may want to consider the proportion of apps that make money (for anyone but Apple that is).

Oh sometimes I think it's easier to sell MAC and IOS apps than Windows and Windows Phone Apps.
I'm sure it's just an illusion.
But I would like to make a card draw app, in which you press a button and the same 8 cards are shown in a random sequence.
Used for pairing up people in tournaments and racing.
