You may be onto something, but the use of bombastic descriptors such as
"brain-damaged" suggest you really don't know what goes on in big
companies,
and have lost sight of the fact that not all people are the brightest bulbs
... just look at our Chief Executive ... even his Papa, who was considerably
more articluate than he is, though not a dimwit, was not terribly clever.

Your comment that one should use Windows for
office work is well
taken. It does that quite well, and other OS' feeble attempts at it
realy don't compare. That's probably the primary reason for
Windows' success.
The reason for MS Windows success is that biz'droids are so brain
damaged that they can't comprehend the usefulness of truly useful
computer systems and useful software. As a result, they prefer, for
example, Micro$oft Word to something more useful such as a combination
of Emacs and LaTeX. Biz'droids found in large corporations are
typically either learning-averse or unable to learn anything that's at
least slightly complicated; they need computers that are simple for
them to use, no matter how inefficient and broken-by-design the
systems are. The big problem is that there aren't enough asylums to
hold all of the biz'droids, so they end up in large corporations in
large numbers.
All the *NIX sophistry is what has cause the
decline of *NIX popularity in
This is due to living in a population which discourages intellectual
activity and prefers such meaningless foolishness as "professional
team sporting events" (e.g. baseball, football, etc), where the
average person can watch them and make use of their vocaublary by
utter such wise words as "duh, footbawl!"
Keep in mind that they're the majority of the user base.
