I'm not sure about #6 "I just don't like it." Certainly, that's going to be the first response, but you have to dig deeper and ask why someone just "doesn't like it."
In my case, after installing and playing with various Linux distros over the past 10 or so years, I still think it's just too hard. Part of it is because I don't really take the time to get into it (of course) and part of it is that it seems like every thing I want to do is like pulling teeth.
Last time I tried was about 6 months ago with Ubuntu. I actually got pretty far and I really like Ubuntu's package management system and very helpful forums, but when I have to go to the forums for every single thing I want to configure it gets old.
Once again, I'll admit that I don't have a lot of patience and this is MY problem. I went through the same pain when I learned the ins and outs of Windows (I really got started in the Win95 days). Learning something new just takes time and people don't want to take that time. I've heard much the same from a few "switchers" (to Mac OS X).
