No kidding, but in that "other OS" the answer to the question "how can I create that report" is usually "You can't unless you spend money for a third-party application".

Let me say this: among the many reasons I like *Nix: in any other o/s,
it's "how co I create this report, and it takes from 2 days to 2 weeks. In
*Nix, it's "of all the ways I can create this report, how would I *prefer*
to do it...."
