The issue isn't which is the better OS or what applications are missing but rather the packaging of applications for windows versus other OS's. I have used Linux since it was delivered on floppies only and love it where is fits. I also use several other OS's and they all have there place in my mind. As a desktop I still use XP because it's easier and faster when installing most desktop client applications. Most users who don't know the difference between memory and disk space don't want to troubleshoot why something doesn't work with there version/distribution/OS. Choice Rules Domination is limiting. Don't get me wrong I run several non windows servers and would not use windows in those environments because it isn't the best fit.
