Actually, Windoze is a better platform for a developer as there are many
more good IDE packages. If one writes it correctly, PHP application will
run on any platform. Windoze is the most comfortable for the vast majority
of developers and has things like Visio, MS-Project, Word, Outlook, Excel
and alike which are all miles ahead of their OO alternatives like Dia,
AbiWord, GNUmeric or OO.
