Put yourself in his/her shoes. You're a budding young technical writer and the one word you hear popping up in almost every tech-related conversation is, you guessed it, Linux. Now look in the mirror and try to tell yourself you're more than a writer. After all, you write about technology because it not only interests you, but you're accurate and fair enough to tell it like it is. Maybe not.

You run Linux, great, you don't have to give a crap what other people run.
Companies who sell distributions have to. Developers funded by companies have to. Every user has to as without the above he wouldn't have an as advanced OS as he has now. And if they don't and push their own agenda further, development of Linux will stagnate. It's not only a simple hobby developer scene anymore. Go ahead, those people these users don't care about are the ones who in fact don't care as they are fine off with Windows.
