Alas, there were no statistics and reports on the number of blue screens that each of the operating systems flashed. Boy Microsoft seems to have put so much research into their new Windows 2003 OS. It appears to me that Microsoft overpaid those guys to give their OS a favorable report. Perhaps some more things to compare are

1) What to do when you dont get the Graphical screen after bootup?
2) What to do when CTRL+ALT+DELETE doesnt respond at all
3) Trying to apply patches without rebooting the system
4) Hours of sleep lost while your webserver is running IIS as opposed to
running apache on a Linux box.
5) Trying to get windows recognize an ext3 partition(poor thing always fails,
and says "unknown type" for such partitions).

and many more such issues...
