Some users swear by Aqua interface of MacOS X, others proclaim the desktop-readiness of Linux, the polished presence of Windows XP, or expound upon the stately Solaris as the ultimate operating system. All of these users are wimps.

I've seen this kind of thing in production, sort of.
At a customer, we were replacing their IBM system with an HP9000 system.
Our software was pure Unix against a relational DB. It was back office software.
However, the software that they chose to run the front (hotel management software) was designed for the IBM. They found an emulator to run the software on the HP.
So it was an interesting mixing of both worlds.
It's also one of those little stories that should remind everyone, it's not the OS that's important, it's the application.
