The only difference is that Linux improved more recently than those other two platforms, so everyone (and those who continue to spread FUD) still think of Linux as that horrible command line thing where nothing works. Linux on the desktop was a rocky experience initially, but so was Windows and so was Mac OS.

The days of Linux being a PITA on the desktop are long past. And it's about to drive me away from Adobe. Every other tool is either already ported to Linux (sometimes works *better* on Linux) or is a cloud based tool that works out of a browser. And the really annoying thing is, Adobe Creative Cloud is the *only* thing I use Windows for. I don't care about style or pretty brushed metal, or really expensive stylish looking monitors, I just want to get my work done. I could buy or build a much more powerful Windows box for less money. I gave up on Apple when they started getting into a pi$$ing contest with Adobe on how the touch pad should work, and at the same time Apple's prices got frankly outrageous. You're talking to someone who originally used Photoshop on a Mac G4.
