Linux vs Windows: What do programmers use.

I was woundering if it is a common theme for most "Pro" programmers to use linux. I mean a book called C;Programming I have was written on linux. So which OS is it that programmers or hackers, per say, use?

Odd you should say that; shit quality audio playback is why I switched to Linux. Couldn't for my life listen to an hour of music without it stuttering at some point.

I can keep Firefox, XChat, a couple xterms, media player (also streaming out to the internet, being decoded from MP3 and re-encoded at a lower bitrate in the process), and maybe even zsnes or something open, and never have my audio break up.
