Very good article. I've run Windows as long as I can remember, but for the past few months I've had a Linux install on a separate partition (Redhat until a few weeks ago, Slackware now), and am now in the saving money phase of building a new computer to run strictly linux. I'd have to say Windows is my primary OS, as I play games a lot, so I just leave my computer in Windows. I use linux when I feel like playing around with it, really. I'm still in the experimental, hacking around with it phase.
I agree with the points the author was trying to make. People use what OS is right for them, and there is no point in trying to compare them directly, as they serve seperate functions. It was overall a good article.
