"Everyone" doesn't.  It may seem that way because most people ignore
outbursts against other OSen which they either like or don't have
anything against, and also if they're of the opinion that slagging off
an OS on a mailing list is a waste of time.  (cf. "Why does everyone
seem to dislike Linux on FreeBSD lists?")

"Why do so many people dislike Y?"  "If so, why is Y used so much?".

s/Y/Microsoft Windows/ (or whatever floats your boat, but that probably
has a better hit-rate)

Now, does it make sense that simply because more people use it that less
people dislike it?
