Other than that, I cannot think of a single reason.
Personal opinion, You should care what they run, if they expect you to be their free technical support and repair person. As for more people with nix platforms, better desktop quality, that can be argued. If Linux gained dominance, we would still have multitudes of computer illiterates, who don't know or understand things. More crackers would be writing exploits, as well as more ports.
