I worked at a place where probably 50% of the employees used Linux as their desktop OS. Of course Linus worked their too, as did about 50 other Linux gurus. Support was not a problem except no one wanted to write hardware drivers for devices not supported by the distribution. I had to deal a great deal with Microsoft, and we had a full time employee located on the Microsoft campus. A very pleasurable company to work with, always willing to help out, and not the evil empire that some people make them out to be. We found OS issues that had never come up in their own testing, and they were always willing to issue fixes and then roll them into the next service pack. If an issue with Linux came up, it was more work because it had to be fixed in every Linux distribution.
