Real-world considerations mean that people sometimes HAVE to use Windows. The VPN at my work doesn't allow Linux users to connect to it. They *could* allow Linux users to connect, but the people in charge of the VPN say that's a "security risk", and they won't consider it. If I need/want to work remotely, my only option is a Windows machine. ("Getting smarter people in charge of the VPN" is not an option, sadly.) Also, what about games? You may not play games, but lots of games only run on Windows.
