Ideal hardware for Unity + Oculus?
Are there any graphics boards / configurations that work "best" when using Unity as development environment and targeting DK2 (or whatever better dev kit might become available until late summer 2015)...
I don't want to get into what OS is better or not, everyone has their opinion. I'd recommend Windows, only because most developers target that, so you will find more apps to play (and more support on the driver side, etc.).
The Unity Linux build I believe was working, but somehow got left out of the build. I think this will be fixed shortly, not sure how soon though.
Strange that the Unity editor Linux version has gotten 18k votes and they haven't made it yet. UE4 shipped without a Linux version but people in the community have done the work to support it. I still think it's experimental at this stage, but it's at least something. However, I would not recommend doing production work on "experimental" software, so you may want to consider Windows (or Mac).
As haagch mentions, if you want to do development on Unity, you'll have to use Windows or Mac.
