(I am not a developer, nor a sysadmin, but a casual programmer and intensive power user, and I get the instant bleah factor when I come across consumers or enterprises using it.) I’m a longtime NeXT-then-MacOSX user with an experience in commercial UNICES ante-2000 and a predilection for Linux and DragonFlyBSD for my server needs. That said, I am gaining a begrudging respect for Microsoft. They make you pay for your nose, and their stuff looks and feels clunky, but the solidity and backwards-compatibility is utterly amazing.
