Georgi, you obviously aren't in touch with the real world if you don't
realize which OS and browser comprise a vast majority of the market. That
penetration often dictates for many IT professionals which OS they will be
working on if they actually choose to work in the field. When you specify
"our" in this way, you are specifying a very small minority. 

As someone else mentioned, I believe on this list, they had the option of
working on MS products and making money (that is what companies are in
business for BTW) or working on non-MS products and fighting with other
suppliers over a small market and probably not making any money. 

As much as I hate car analogies.... Instead of jumping to a car that runs on
hydrogen because it is safer and better for the environment and bitching at
all of the gas stations that don't sell hydrogen I would rather just stick
with a gasoline vehicle until the hydrogen infrastructure is able to support
a large number of hydrogen vehicles. If I need to drive from Tennesee to
Florida.... I need to drive, I don't need to spend the time whining and
complaining and trying to find places that can make it so I can actually do
what I need to do. If I have a hydrogen tank by home though, that is perfect
for driving around there as long as it handles everything else I need in
that space.
