Pecon:
Linux is a very customizable system and gives both the user and programs that you install a lot more ability to trash the system. Windows is a clusterforget of redundant permissions with a lot of them that you simply can't have as a user, which makes the system a lot more foolproof and less prone to accidental trashing.

Because of that Windows is still my preferred OS to actually do work on. I don't have time to figure out what I did to break things I just want it to work. Also because installing 3rd-party graphics drivers in linux is a few times worse than a pain in the ass.

Servers are another story. I love using non-gui (server) Debian and Ubuntu in all the servers I run. It's fast and frankly much harder to mess up than Windows when it comes to the server environment, primarily because having to do everything through the command line seems to demand that you have half an idea of what you're doing before you do it.
