but I'm still considering me very much a Linux person.

If that's a consolation, so was Stanley Kubrick (ahead of his time as usual): https://retrocomputingforum.com/t/stanley-kubrick-wanted-a-unix-machine-for-christmas/2183 (via https://retrocomputingforum.com - no affiliation, just a non-retro follower)

My job requires me to work on Win

LanX, I am not a lawyer but that's probably a health hazard, like working with asbestos in the old days :)

I'm surprised how many people here are very vocal about their tribal instincts regarding OS, ... other languages

Count me in (*n[ui]x, !python) and I well hope it is not just a "tribal instinct". My motivation is simply to keep the world sanity count at Age_of_Enlightenment levels. No man is an island, someone out there using m$ affects me. e.g. when my internet banking supported only that dreaded 666, the internet explorer. Albeit, all above served with a big smiling face, I am not condensending yet Fletch++.

Untested theory: using m$ increases entropy. Although keeping track on all of us seems lke it is reducing it (re: spying,filing&archiving).

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
