Yes.

First, many of the best tools available for doing what I do are only
available for Windows.

Second, when what you do depends on the vagaries of a particular
platform or the applications peculiar to it, guess what you find
yourself having to use "most of the time"?

Yeah, yeah, I could run VMWare, etc on x86 Linux and run all the
Windows stuff that I "must" use under that, but what a waste of
processor overhead, etc, when you are talking about most of what I do.

Regards,

Nick FitzGerald
