No.

1. The very first thing that I learned when doing computing for a
   living is "use the best tool for the job." Despite the vitriol
   from some folks, there are times when Windows is not only the
   best tool for the job, but it's the ONLY tool for the job.

2. Windows stability has been increasing at least as fast as Linux
   usability over the last several years, if not faster. Linux (and
   most other unices) still suffers from the problem that there is
   no single unifying UI guideline set, so that while Windows
   programs look and feel  -- and perform -- pretty much the same
   all over, every Linux GUI program is different. The learning
   curve for Windows programs is shallower because of the
   consistency.

3. Windows isn't the only platform out there which doesn't use glibc
   by default. IMO, Matz is absolutely correct to emphasize
   portability over 'The Linux Way'.

4. I use both Linux and Windows boxen (and far prefer the Windows
   because there are problems with the Linux install that I have
   neither the inclination, the time or the expertise to solve), but
   for very different purposes. The fact that I can develop and test
   on Windows (my primary terminal/front-end OS) and then test and
   deploy on Linux with Perl, Python, or Ruby is of great benefit.
   Again, the right tool for the job -- not Linux Everywhere.
