The main argument I see for using Windows is that it is supposedly more user friendly than Linux. But I must ask, how many average users are going to know how to disable things like auto-update, Universal Plug-n-Play, etc?
I'm sure there are lots of tweaks you can get to make the system slightly more stable, however, most average users won't know how to tweak it.
Sometimes Linux has to be tweaked, but so does Windows if you want to keep it stable. Judging by this, Windows isn't any more user friendly than Linux.
