Thats just ridiculous. Please investigate a bit more before saying
something like that. If what you wrote about Linux' lack of music cration
and stuff above was correct, I would never have used Linux, but instead
windows. I don't even know where to start arguing against what you say. If
I start mentioning some softwares, like snd or pd, that are much better to
windows alternatives or runs better in (and is developed primarily in)
linux than windows/macosx, I would just forget a lot of programs and 
systems.
