It's about trade-offs. Yes, there are issues with Linux; there have always been different various issues in any Linux distribution I've used since 1995 which is when I started.
But there are issues with Windows and OS X too. And that's where Linux's advantages kick in again. You'll always miss something from the other side of the fence. You'll have to weigh in, and some people weigh to Linux and some people don't.
I've never got too far with Windows. I ditched OS X after over two years of everyday use. Despite the uncertainty regarding hardware compatibility in Linux, I really like the way it, namely Debian and recently Ubuntu, gets rid of the _other_ problems so irritatingly present in other operating systems.
A Linux system is just too user friendly for users who aren't too system friendly.
