A blog post from DHH on why don't more people use Linux.

Technically, the answer is quite simple for the general public: no one uses an OS for the sake of an OS itself. People use computers to run specific software to help them with their routines. OS is secondary.

However, he raises another question: if you're not a part of the "general public", what if you're a person who writes code that then (most likely) is run on Linux, shouldn't you know your tools better in this case?
