I've had clients ask me to work on windows machines from time to time. I've always been reluctant to because: My skills with Windows are very much less than my Mac skills. I'm not fond of banging my head against the wall. I want to take a shower afterward. In the most recent case the customer was supplied with a windoz laptop by a company they were doing work for. It was to access the company Intranet via VPN. It used both a specialized driver for the WiFi card, an add-on VPN client and several other add on programs which weren't used. All these things added to the complexity of setting things up, even with detailed instructions (which were conflicting and inaccurate. I couldn't see anything that required a windows laptop or the specialized software. The capper is that said company is a well known networking company.
