Would be nice if developers only had to support Linux (unfortunately; not enough people use Linux yet, especially for commercial applications). It's a lot better than trying to run 5 different OSs at once to test for compatibility with different operating systems (I try to make my software work on Windows 7, Ubuntu Linux, Windows XP, Windows Phone 7, and Gentoo Linux).
