I Agree with Dennis. As a computer/engineer professional I thrive in both worlds. I do favor MS though because that is the OS that generates most of my income. I guess if you do not have that much income then you are stuck with Linux. Linux is not exclusively made for nerds, but I won't waste $200/hr of my time searching for plug-ins that is never assured to work! I remember a philosopher that says - cost will always reflect the need and wants of people looking for a better product. Free is not always good. My company, POGEE Technologies,Inc. -The Home of Afordable Solutions - produces products that is 90% non-Linux. It is very easy to make a judgement on theory and most academicians out there do not have the practical experience to based their opinions on.
Listen to the industry. Run your statistical analysis or what have you. What what the name of that Linux company that went bankrupt? Look at the CPU Industry, what is the standard of their design? XP-compatible, WINplexs CPUs, Windows here, Windows there? Oh yeah, I think their is one - MacOS.
But do not worry, I still service some accounts with a Linux machine and I do not charge them anything. They could not afford to pay me.
