there is no difference between windows/mac/linux with regards to tex; it all 
depends on what other tools and editors you want to use; here we use all 
platforms mixed: we use windows for development and projects (most convenient 
for the kind of work we do), linux for (web) server based apps including tex 
(quite stable); and we will start using macs for some projects, and maybe also 
as a replacement for the linux file/mail/etc servers (best interface/hardware)

Because i want to post a new context zip with svg support, today i spent the 
whole day trying to get the latest gtk libs on the one year old linux suse 9.1 
server; it took me a few minutes to install inkscape on xp but i've given up on 
linux (it needs tons of latest greatest libs that one need to compile and put in 
the right non-conflicting places so I will try again when i've received suse 
9.3); installing fonts in a tex system is easier -)
