The operative word here being "choose", a few years ago I tried 
Linux, using it for a year or so as server/gateway/router environment.
After having tried windoze at these tasks, Linux's superb 
performance prompted me to use it as my desktop environment, which 
has been improving at an astronomical rate, now I am at a stage where
I no longer _need_ M$ for anything, and this makes me happy, 
I'm sure I'm not alone.

True everything does have its place, but in my daily dealings with 
lusers they're typically a lazy/busy lot, troubled with driving the 
software and its bugs, with no regard for the OS at all.

The only reason i can see for keeping M$ in these environments, is 
"that's what the staff are comfortable with". 
A situation that may soon change?
