yes, for the desktop, but not where most development is done.
Maybe I confound it with the question which desktop is best for *nix development, but
it just does not make sense develop for *nix on a MS Win desktop. You do not even
have a decent shell. MinGW and Cygwin are not THE REAL THING.
BTW I am not a MS hater, I had a Technet subscription with all MS operating systems
when I gave courses in MS Networking / Active Directory.
