Unfortunately, we have to put up with unrealistic comments like these. let me repeat it again for those who forget:

Some of us have no choice in the operating system that we work with. And some of us are running systems under a Windows environment and are perfectly happy with how things run, and *never ever* have the "problems" that get reported here.

I have windows databases that have been running for 3 years now. *Never* does the machine crash. And *never* do we reboot "just because we should".

If you experience bad things, then I suggest you take it up with your system admin. More than likely, somebody was allowed to treat a database server like a personal desktop.

Just my 2 cents.

Define dominant?

The chances of Linux overtaking the average desktop in the world are pretty slim and Linux is not really mature enough to run enterprise level stuff - maybe soon it will be.

Sun and HP are Windows are still more widely used (rightly or wrongly)
