No it's not. Application development is overwhelmingly done on the Windows platform.

And stop lumping in Linux with REAL Unix please.

Q^3 said "better," which refers to quality, not quantity.

After Linux came out with a 64-bit version for Opteron before MS could for Windows, I thought it had reached another nice turning point.

what, i thought that you, as a windows supported, would love the SCOFUD?

the fact remains, though, that a good deal of programs that run on unix/bsd can also run on linux. both are compliant with posix-standards. i'm lumping them together in this case simply because even though linux is not so much a derivative as an imitator, it imitates well enough that it's become a viable market force... UnixWare has not.
