I suspect that developers are unlikely to be running any hardware you can 
duplicate, and if they are anything like me they will change hardware regularly 
for one reason or another, to test something, have fun using something, or 
because some part of a system was redeployed.

Wouldn't bet on that, either, usage controls which bugs you see to some extent. 
Get something common.
