I do have Linux too.
But I use Windows for three main reasons:
1. To not "forget" how to use it, so I can maintain other peopel computers (for example a bunch of computers on some of my startups use windows because users refuse to switch to Linux for whatever reason).
2. So I can use some CAD and 3D software that are Windows-only (I am so mad at this, not even OSX versions of some of them exist, and they are so finnicky, even on Windows they are so unstable, using Wine and whatnot they just crash a lot), mind you I am talking both about mechanical engineering and whatnot CAD, and 3D art software, I work with both (one of my startups is a game design company, another one sells replacement parts for industrial machinery)
3. To play some games...
That said I am managing to phase a bit to Linux better now, my SO has a dual-boot machine but she never logs in on Windows, and I am often gaming on her machine and making sure to buy only games that can run on her machine, still some of my favourite already owned games are Win-only and don't run on Wine. (and lot other favourite games are DOS but... DOSBOX is awesome :D)
