Businesses aren't using Windows because schools use it (I think Chromebooks and iPads are more popular among schools now than Windows machines because children can trash a PC easily). They use it because of a long tail of software applications that only run on Windows, they use it because of stuff like Group Policy and Active Directory, they use it because of a lot of things that Linux doesn't do as well.
