I have to agree. I tend to migrate to my Mac simply because I don't have to spend hours trying to figure something out to get whatever done I need done. Don't get me wrong, though. I like to tinker, and I have a laptop with Redhat installed on it that I fiddle with, if nothing more than a curiosity. Linux itself may be stable, but as you mentioned, the applications are hit and miss....free doesn't always mean better....
Just use what you like...don't let anyone make you feel stupid for not choosing linux.
I don't hate linux, nor do I feel somehow dumber than most because I work with my Mac more. I do feel silly that I can't stop playing Heroes of Might and Magic III though. :)
