It's still the predominant OS for business, so vast majority of people will already be familiar with it and the starting price for a windows machine is half of what you'd pay for an entry mac. On another hand, windows is the main PC gaming platform, linux has come a long way and is a lot more viable then even 5 years back, but you're still pretending your windows most of the time so you'll have to deal with additional problems every now and then. More to the point, I haven't seen any big OEM selling linux boxes outside of dev machines and specialised vendors (system 76). So yeah, windows still dominates.
