Most companies differ between "standard applications" (domain controlling, file sharing, possibly MS-Exchange) and "custom application hosting" - which is for example your application (and a lot of others). It takes less skilled windows-admins to troubleshoot standard MS-software than to troubleshoot problems with custom software.

I can really understand the OS-argument: If you have a lot of applications running on unix, why would you want to start supporting a windows-environment too (or the other way round)?
