It depends on our current engagement. We often deal with clients who use specialist equipment and/or software themselves, and we need compatibility. A lot of this is moving to online or embedded systems now as well, so the problem becomes less of a problem with time, but it's not a non-issue yet. Also, a lot of creative software doesn't have a Linux version, and in some cases it only runs on either Windows or Mac but not the other, so there is a lack of flexibility there. Again compatibility is a concern, but also the blunt truth is that most of the Linux-friendly FOSS packages simply aren't as good, and even where they could be, they would typically need a significant migration project.
