That is something we all feel Margaret.
I could adapt my computer to run both Windows and Linux, but I choose not to.
I use windows7 because it's convenient and once antivirus and other security are in place have no problems.
As a choice for work I use a Macbook.
For some strange reason people often get fixated and even evangelistic about the operating system they use, all I can say is if that rocks your boat then use it but don't look down your nose on what others choose to use, lifes too short and the rest of us do seem to manage.
Anybody remember about three years ago the servers for AccyWeb were hacked by some Dutch idiots?Just because they could? Closing all the sites Roy was running for about a week which OS was he using at the time, well, it wasn't Windows, it was that state of the art heavily secure you just can't beat it, Linux. If they want to ruin things for others they will do no matter what system you use.
So if your happy with Windows use it, if you enjoy the ease of use of a Mac, use it, if you wish to spend your time with Linux then use it, but don't criticise others for their choice of operating system.
All that does is show you have a very narrow vision of what computing is about.
