The reason they use Windows is because it runs Microsoft Office (and
businesses are "married" to this crap) and Microsoft's has leverage
with the computer manufacturers. Monopolies have a lot of inertia
that's hard to overcome. But you'll note that, for development
purposes, Microsoft is now including Linux in Windows. There's a
reason for that. And, as software moves to the "rental" phase and more
and more of the applications move to the "Cloud", there will be less
and less necessity to use Windows.

No purchasing manager was ever fired for specifying Microsoft.

 
I wouldn't bet on it.

Leaving out the cloud I have to agree. Microsoft and the availability of
Microsoft Certified Whatevers makes pointy headed bosses sleep better at
night.
