I both agree and disagree. For some uses, there are softwares for which I know no alternatives on a system or another one. Examples: AutoCAD => windows, ease of maintenance => Debian, Fedora (but, not Linux!) and maybe some BSD.
Plus, there is also the history: everyone knows what Windows looks like, even if they do not knows what is Windows.
So, things are a little more complicated than the current pre-install thing. Also, there was an effort for netbooks several years ago, on which Linux distros were installed.
So, I both agree and disagree :)
