dodgy statistics.... linux is good for some things where windows fails and the opposite. Both rock and suck ...
(for example, I can't do my work in windows, because the company makes the perl scripts in linux, and I can't use linux @ home because it doesn't know any driver for my network card and i don't hve internet

2) People say more rapidly "sucks" when something is associated with MS (even for no reason).
3) Since more users use Windows, relatively more users will complain.
4) If a problem exists in Linux, people wont say "Linux sucks" as rapidly because often the people who use Linux know that saying something like that is stupid and know that 90% of all errors are human-errors, not OS-errors (because Linux isn't exactly for the novice) and the Linuxers will often try to fix the errors themself instead of posting a "X sucks"-message on the net....
