Newer Windowses really aren't so bad anymore, either, making them more compelling to Our Kind. I'm a big Linux fan, but running Win7 in a VirtualBox, I've found it perfectly adequate. (Well, there was the time that it thought I had pirated it--I hadn't--and made me go through a guilty-until-proven-innocent routine to get it going again, but aside from that...) But I don't run a standard desktop (I run fvwm on Arch), so I get huge mileage out of Linux that I wouldn't get out of Windows. Could be people running GNOME or KDE don't realize such a gain.
