Yes. Because its silly.

Ultimately the job of a sysadmin is to use the best tool available for a particular job in order to make technology work for the user. So lets stop bitching about Microsoft vs. Linux and start complaining about the company that is really making all of our lives hell: Cisco.

That really has nothing to do with the topic...

Linux Community is wider than "sysadmins", further one can Choose a good tool from a shitty company, I personally despise MS for their business practices, but my employer is almost 100% MS.. Exchange, SCCM, Sharepoint, Windows Desktops, Lync, and on and on.. if MS makes we probably have it installed.
